Comment 1 Guillaume Lespinasse 2015-09-23 01:41:14 UTC
The Apache 2.0 license was used by a plugin removed since 2013:
https://github.com/andykant/service.twitchtv/blob/master/livestreamer/plugins/gomtv.py

The plugin is gone because the service (gomtv) was discontinued.

It is however present in livestreamer-1.7.2, which is still being offered by portage.

I don't see much point in keeping this old version around, especially since a much more recent stable version is available. I suggest removing the old 1.7.2 ebuild alongside with the apache 2.0 license.

(In reply to Guillaume Lespinasse from comment #1)

Thank you for the clarification.

Whether to keep the old ebuild around is up to you, since you are the maintainer. However newer ebuilds should have Apache-2.0 removed then.
