Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2011-02-24 07:20:02 UTC
licenses/libf2c is only a warranty disclaimer, not a license. If you look into the f2c and libf2c tarballs, you'll find files "notice" and "Notice", respectively, conciding with what we call "as-is". It also appears in the header of the individual files in f2c.

So, licenses/libf2c should be deleted and the *f2c packages be changed to LICENSE="as-is".
