Hiyas,
I looked into packaging the nesc compiler
(
https://sourceforge.net/projects/nescc) and I noticed that it uses the
deprecated intel license for some java files:
http://nescc.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/nescc/nesc/COPYRIGHT?revision=1.2...
http://nescc.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/nescc/nesc/INTEL-LICENSE?revision...
I opened a bug in their bug tracking system for this:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2879881&group_id...
The Intel license is OSI approved, but deprecated and therefore
currently not allowed for Fedora afaics:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing#Bad_Licenses
Btw. it's a "should not", so maybe it is ok, nevertheless. Or it should
be a "must not" guideline, e.g. because it also affects non OSI approved
liceneses afaics.
I've updated the wording there to clarify that no Fedora package may use
anything under a "Bad" License.
