Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev

2012-09-25 13:12:30 UTC

See note in licenses/as-is:
| Note: Most all license have an "as is" clause. For our purposes this does
| not make all software in this category. This category is for software with
| very little restrictions.

This is a tracker bug for packages marked improperly or imprecisely with LICENSE="as-is". For packages using "as-is" as originally intended, it should be checked if they can be labelled as "HPND" or some BSD-like license.
