Description Michelangelo Scopelliti 2024-07-14 08:24:09 UTC
trying to install scummvm fails with error
----
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "scummvm" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- games-engines/scummvm-9999::gentoo (masked by: GPL-3-with-font-exception license(s), missing keyword)
A copy of the 'GPL-3-with-font-exception' license is located at '/var/db/repos/gentoo/licenses/GPL-3-with-font-exception'.

- games-engines/scummvm-2.8.1-r1::gentoo (masked by: GPL-3-with-font-exception license(s))
- games-engines/scummvm-2.8.0-r1::gentoo (masked by: GPL-3-with-font-exception license(s))

For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
----

AFAICT, scummvm is the only package in the tree with such a license.

Looking at /var/db/repos/gentoo/profiles/license_groups, "GPL-3+-with-font-exception" is reported twice in the section GPL_COMPATIBLE, and "GPL-3-with-font-exception" is not listed. Thus the error.

At the moment, in my system, ACCEPT_LICENSE is se to "@BINARY-REDISTRIBUTABLE".

Reproducible: Always
