Description Ferenc Erki 2020-09-08 08:22:19 UTC 
The recent net-news/newsboat-2.20.1 specifies BSL-1.1 among its licenses, which stands for Business Source License.

The BSL mentioned in upstream's recent PR[1] actually refers to Boost Software License, which is represented as Boost-1.0 in Gentoo.

Comment 2 Ionen Wolkens gentoo-dev 2020-11-29 14:01:30 UTC 
2.21 bump[0] brought back BSL-1.1 again, guess(?) have to keep in mind to revert every time until cargo-ebuild is fixed
