Bug 4398 – Suggestion for a radiance ebuild

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Florian Idelberger 2002-07-01 14:10:24 UTC]

Radiance is a powerfull 3d renderin system, unreached when it comes to 
realistic light rendering. The sources are available for free non-commercial 
use at the moment and at december the first 2002 it'll even become open-source.
I would like to see an ebuild for it.
An example of the abilities of radiance:

howdy :) 
just had a look at the site. nice looking app. just one BIG problem.
It's first of binary only and also requires registration to download.
here is the details from their licence agreement .. 

You may use the Software solely at the address you provided to Berkeley Lab 
during the registration process; you may not transfer the Software without the 
prior written consent of Berkeley Lab; you may not allow the Software to be 
accessed over the internet; 

curios part is ... even if we have a ebuild .. are we allowing access to the 
software over the internet ?!?!?! 

Any comments ?

Ok, this have been sitting here for a while, without ebuild submitted or even
the legal issue resolved or having seen any comments. I guess I'll close the bug
then. 
Please reopen it or even submit a new one if the situation changes (submission
of an ebuild would be greatly appreciated, as well as will increase the priority
of the bug ;)).
