The init script(s) provided in FILESDIR for sys-cluster/torque has a license of GPL-2 but GPL-2 isn't within the LICENSE variable of the ebuild(s):

files/pbs_mom-init.d has license line:
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
... and is used by the following ebuilds:
torque-2.3.13.ebuild:LICENSE="openpbs"
torque-2.4.16.ebuild:LICENSE="openpbs"

files/pbs_server-init.d-munge has license line:
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
... and is used by the following ebuilds:
torque-2.5.9.ebuild:LICENSE="torque-2.5"
torque-3.0.3.ebuild:LICENSE="torque-2.5"
torque-3.0.4.ebuild:LICENSE="torque-2.5"
torque-3.0.5.ebuild:LICENSE="torque-2.5"

There are two options here -- either LICENSE in the ebuilds should be appended with GPL-2 to cover the init script, or the init script should be relicensed so that it is covered by current LICENSE (this one is probably the preferred resolution).  See also bug 425702 .

As all of the scripts were written by me, I just changed the license.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Change init script licenses to Torque-2.5+.  Resolves #426160

(Portage version: 2.1.10.65/cvs/Linux x86_64)

Thanks for reporting.
