app-emulation/virtualbox-bin-3.2.10 has license PUEL app-emulation/virtualbox-ose-3.2.10 has license GPL-2 ...BUT... app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-additions-3.2.10 has license GPL-2 app-emulation/virtualbox-ose-additions-3.210 has license PUEL Is there a mixup in licenses or do I understand the names of the packages in a wrong way? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: emerge --search virtualbox Check the licenses in the search results :-) Alternatively check http://packages.gentoo.org/package/app-emulation/virtualbox-ose-additions and http://packages.gentoo.org/package/app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-additions for the license tag.
virtualbox-guest-additions is a package that is only necessary for a Gentoo-guest system (a Gentoo running inside of VirtualBox). The package's files are compiled from source and the source files are taken from the VirtualBox-OSE source tarball which is licensed under the GPL-2. The virtualbox-ose-additions package is an ISO image taken directly from the SUN/Oracle mirrors. It contains pre-compiled binaries for various operating systems (like the VirtualBox display-/mouse-drivers for Windows operating systems). The ISO image is only licensed under the PUEL license. So no mixup here.
