Pornview contain code of another GPL Program but all copyright notices are removed (I found nothing in about with pornview-0.2.0_pre1.ebuild installed). Read there: http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2002/debian-legal-200212/msg00159.html Also on all Pornview sites the files to download are removed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
There is still a place to download it: http://alioth.debian.org/scm/?group_id=1261 And he added the line "Brian Nelson <pyro@debian.org>" to the AUTHORS file: http://cvs.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/pornview/AUTHORS?rev=1.2&content-type=text/plain&cvsroot=pornview But the file of Ebuild pornview-0.2.0_pre1.ebuild contain the old version: /usr/share/doc/pornview-0.2.0_pre1/AUTHORS.gz
just because debian peeps add patches to the code and thus to the AUTHORS file means nothing to us we're not using debian patches on this package so we shouldnt care in terms of removing the package from portage, until something happens upstream along the lines of the author going 'my project is dead' i say leave it alone
the thread goes on to say that it has been resolved between the two authors
so theres nothing for us to do
