Description Kent Fredric (IRC: kent\n) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-02-06 17:11:11 UTC
The Ebuild is fine, but here is the ChangeLog

# ChangeLog for media-plugins/vdr-vdricq
# Copyright 2002-2006 Gentoo Technologies, Inc.; Distributed under the GPL v2
# $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/media-plugins/vdr-vdricq/ChangeLog,v 1.1 2006/10/22 17:52:44 hd_brummy Exp $

I believe it is Gentoo Policy to only permit "Gentoo Foundation" as a copyright
holder for both ebuilds and Changelog files in tree.

And I'm unsure if "Gentoo Technologies, Inc" is a real company, or its just an
input error.

Sadly, if this is another company, to remedy this legally, the only thing I
think you can do is delete the entire ChangeLog file and start over :(

But the alternative is having a foreign body having copyright over Gentoo
files.
