Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2013-04-06 20:12:40 UTC
The ebuild claims LICENSE="as-is" which doesn't seem to be right. I cannot find any distribution terms, neither in the three zipballs nor on the package's homepage.

Can you please sort out (possibly with upstream) under what terms this package can be distributed?

P.S. We're in the process of cleaning up all packages labelled "as-is", so please don't add any *new* packages with that license.

Mail to upstream sent.

No answer. I suggest that we change LICENSE to "all-rights-reserved" and add mirror and bindist restriction.
