IIUC, these are build from sources provided by Redhat? @jstein: Can you please provide a pointer to these sources? Doing a license audit from binaries is close to impossible, because any headers of the source files won't be included in them.
AFAICS, sources are here: https://fedorapeople.org/groups/virt/virtio-win/direct-downloads/virtio-win-pkg-scripts-input/ I see the following licenses there: GPL-2 GPL-2+ GPL-3+ LGPL-2+ Apache-2.0 BSD
(In reply to Ulrich Müller from comment #2) > I see the following licenses there: > GPL-2 GPL-2+ GPL-3+ LGPL-2+ Apache-2.0 BSD I don't see MS-RL in the sources, but we can list it in addition. It is approved by both FSF and OSI.
