There's no license info included with the package.
Please clarify under what terms it can be distributed.

GdmGreeterTheme.desktop contains the following info:

   Author=Nicholas D. Wolfwood
   Copyright=©2007 Gentoo Foundation

@blackace: Can we mark this as CC-BY-SA-2.5?

Another nine months have passed. Does anyone care to make a statement about the copyright status of this package? Otherwise I suggest that we treeclean it.

As discussed in IRC:

# Ulrich Müller <ulm@gentoo.org> (13 Mar 2014)
# No license, therefore not redistributable. SRC_URI dead.
# Gentoo live media don't use gdm any more.
# Masked for removal in 30 days, bug 446794.
