Description Andrew John Hughes 2010-01-28 01:47:57 UTC

http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/MSERGEANT/XML-Parser-2.36/Makefile.PL lists
the license as 'perl' which is

LICENSE="|| ( Artistic GPL-2 )"

as in dev-lang/perl, not

LICENSE="Artistic"

which means that the original non-Free Artistic license has to be accepted.


Reproducible: Always
