As far as I can tell, redistribution is not allowed. I set it to RESTRICT="mirror", but I am not sure if I can let the LICENSE line set to as-is only. (In reply to comment #1) > [...] I am not sure if I can let the LICENSE line set to as-is only. "as-is" will go away sooner or later. Please leave this bug open. I suggest that we change LICENSE to "GPL-2 GPL-3 CC-BY-3.0 CC-BY-SA-2.5 CC-BY-NC-SA-3.0 CC-BY-ND-3.0 MPL-1.1 freedist public-domain all-rights-reserved", where all-rights-reserved would cover the themes without license. Mirror restriction must remain, of course.

The ebuild claims LICENSE="CCPL-Attribution-ShareAlike-2.5 as-is" which doesn't seem to be right. I cannot find any global distribution terms, neither in the tarball nor on the package's homepage. My findings so far about the licenses of the single themes: A_Ducks_Claw: GPL-2 CCPL-Attribution-NoDerivs-3.0 Blaue_Klaue: GPL-2 CCPL-Attribution-NoDerivs-3.0 blue_anarchy: GPL-2 Coons-Blue-0.3: GPL-2 elementary: GPL-2 Fugue: CCPL-Attribution-3.0 Gnome: GPL-3 gnome-brave: GPL-2 public-domain Gnomeria: freedist Graphitte-0.9.7: public-domain (and "some icons under their original license") GurUnix: freedist, approximately (no-sell, no-modifications) hash303030: CCPL-Attribution-ShareAlike-NonCommercial-3.0 hashA0A0A0: CCPL-Attribution-ShareAlike-NonCommercial-3.0 hydroxygen: public-domain (and "same license as the Hydroxygen IconSet") KDE4ish: GPL-2 mozilla: "can be freely re-used" Navigator: MPL-1.1 SylZilla: GPL-2 (?) TangoClaws-0.3: CCPL-Attribution-ShareAlike-2.5 TangoOrbit: CCPL-Attribution-ShareAlike-2.5 Tango_v1.2.1: public-domain XeNtish: public-domain (and "other icons, see the corresponding homepages") UltimateClawsMail0.5.1: CCPL-Attribution-ShareAlike-NonCommercial-3.0 ZX-0_1.1: CCPL-Attribution-ShareAlike-2.5 For all other themes, I cannot find any license in their directory. Are we even allowed to redistribute the distfile of this package? Can you please sort out (possibly with upstream) under what terms this package can be distributed?
