Bug 320241 – net-analyzer/nagios-imagepack sources - LICENSE disputed

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

[Description Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2010-05-17 18:04:54 UTC]

We set GPL-2 as license but according to some of the mail that reached netmon@g.o recently, that's being disputed by Debian's packagers.

It appears that [1] is no longer available anyway, except on mirrors, and it probably isn't disputed at all.

The list of disputed tarballs probably includes every SRC_URI download except the -gentoo one:

imagepak-andrade.tar.gz
imagepak-base.tar.gz
imagepak-bernhard.tar.gz
imagepak-didier.tar.gz
imagepak-remus.tar.gz
imagepak-satrapa.tar.gz
imagepak-werschler.tar.gz

Some more notes:

+ When trying to download these files using ebuild(1) and with GENTOO_MIRRORS="", all the mirror://sourceforge SRC_URI parts are still valid.
+ Also, it appears we've been pointing to these SRC_URI parts since the early separate nagios-imagepack ebuild[1].
+ It looks like the andrade, base, didier, remus, satrapa and wershler images are still distributed by nagios itself at [2], where even *our* gentoo images are distributed.
+ So all in all for Gentoo this isn't as much an issue with distributing the images as such, but about the LICENSE variable in the ebuild.
+ Inspection of the imagepak-andrade[3] package at the Nagios Exchange reveals that in all this time not a single file was changed, not even the included PaintShop Pro image browser cache file.

Sent mail to Jan Wagner who started the thread.

Updating assignee/CC per metadata.xml.

Can this just be package.masked? All new versions of nagios (3.3.x and up) block it and I suspect it will be entirely unusable soon.

I'm just gonna mask this for removal if nobody objects.

[Comment 5 Chris Reffett (RETIRED) 2014-11-26 01:19:31 UTC]

In the absence of comment from the proxy maintainer, I'm going to go ahead and say go for it.
