Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2012-11-24 15:35:55 UTC
The package consists of a python script and a vim syntax file, Neither of them say anything about the terms under which they can be distributed. Also I cannot find any license in the upstream repository.

We need some license for this package, so can you please sort this out with upstream?
Comment 1 Nikolaj Šujskij 2012-11-24 18:59:32 UTC
lodgeit as a pastebin-project (we're using only script for it) is distributed under BSD license, for example: https://bitbucket.org/EnTeQuAk/lodgeit-main/src/1ca55b8189de1aa375b0c24b3c931b950b1379c7/lodgeit/application.py?at=default#cl-9

Would it suffice?
Comment 2 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2012-11-24 23:07:54 UTC
I would be happier if lodgeit.py and lodgeit.vim themselves would contain a short notice saying that they're BSD licensed.
Comment 3 Nikolaj Šujskij 2012-11-25 08:51:50 UTC
I've written a message to lodgeit.vim maintainer and filed a PR at BitBucket for CLI paster: https://bitbucket.org/EnTeQuAk/lodgeit-main/pull-request/11/

 Accepted upstream. Now we can bump version and be sure of license. Or wait a bit for lodgeit.vim maintainer.

Ping. Any news?

Nope. lodgeit.vim author hasn't responded, though I got no "Cannot be delivered" message.

Here's him at GitHub: https://github.com/mitsuhiko
Though I can't figure out how to reach him :)

He hangs out on #pocoo (mitsuhiko). Behold lodgeit.vim 0.3: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1965
Released under MIT, though. And uses another pastebin, hehe.
Comment 8 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2013-04-28 13:25:41 UTC
I'm not entirely happy about the situation, but I've changed lodgeit-0.3_p20120507.ebuild and lodgeit-0.3_p20120618-r1.ebuild to LICENSE="BSD MIT".
