Description steffen_brauer 2023-08-07 13:12:25 UTC
The ebuild just states PSF-2 for the installed package, which is correct for the majority of the installed files. Nevertheless, the information is incomplete b/c there is a lot more installed by the ebuild.

https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/LICENSE states code in documentation is 0-clause-BSD: "ZERO-CLAUSE BSD LICENSE FOR CODE IN THE PYTHON DOCUMENTATION".

https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/Doc/license.rst also lists a lot more licensing information for substantial parts of the package, which most (all?) get installed by the ebuild as part of dev-lang/python. There is at least BSD-3, BSD-2, MIT missing from the ebuilds' LICENSE-entry.

Reproducible: Always
