• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Göktürk Yüksek 2016-11-27 06:14:56 UTC]

Hi,

This package has the following exceptions to GPL-3+ (https://github.com/JPaulMora/Pyrit/blob/master/modules/cpyrit_opencl/_cpyrit_opencl.c#L20):

"""
#    Additional permission under GNU GPL version 3 section 7
#
#    If you modify this Program, or any covered work, by linking or
#    combining it with the OpenSSL project's "OpenSSL" library (or a
#    modified version of that library), containing parts covered by
#    the terms of OpenSSL/SSLeay license, the licensors of this
#    Program grant you additional permission to convey the resulting
#    work. Corresponding Source for a non-source form of such a
#    combination shall include the source code for the parts of the
#    OpenSSL library used as well as that of the covered work.
#
#    If you modify this Program, or any covered work, by linking or
#    combining it with any library or libraries implementing the
#    Khronos Group OpenCL Standard v1.0 or later (or modified
#    versions of those libraries), containing parts covered by the
#    terms of the licenses of their respective copyright owners,
#    the licensors of this Program grant you additional permission
#    to convey the resulting work.
"""

I've had a brief discussion with robbat on IRC and I would like to get the license team's opinion on how we should proceed? Should we add another exception file under licenses/ or is there a better way to do it?

Thanks,
