Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2013-01-03 08:53:33 UTC
The main license file contains the following license:

   THC-RUT LICENSE - SHORT & SIMPLE

   THC-RUT is free for any non-commercial use. THC-RUT is not allowed
   to be used in any commercial program without written permission
   of the author (that's currently me! I've not denied a single request
   so far. Just want to know who is using it.).

   I reserve the right to deny the use of THC-RUT or the implemented
   techniques to anyone at any time.

   anonymous@segfault.net
   (c) THC - http://www.thc.org

The licenses team has discussed this license and we came to the conclusion that we can subsume it under "free-noncomm".

Additional licenses for subdirs and files:

   Libnet: BSD-2 BSD HPND (but irrelevant, because the bundled lib is not used)
   pcre: PCRE
   nmap-os-fingerprints: GPL-1+ (GPL without version, so any version allowed)
Comment 1 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2013-01-15 20:17:23 UTC
Fixed.
