Auditing the augeas project source file licenses I found a handful of
files where the license was not specified sufficiently clearly. I've
raised this upstream:
https://github.com/hercules-team/augeas/issues/816
For the unspecified BSD variant the original author has already confirmed
they're ok with BSD-2-Clause which solves that case, but I'm doubtful
they'll resolve everything in a sufficiently fast timeframe for Fedora's
SPDX conversion.
In a few of the cases which say "LGPL" or "LGPLv2+" without an exact
version, I'm fairly comfortable assuming the intent was to match the
augeas overall license which was LGPL-2.1-or-later.
For the files which merely say:
This file is licensed under the GPL.
I'm not sure what the best practice is ? Can I justify "GPL-1.0-or-later"
in the Fedora spec on the basis that the non-version specific declaration
in the source could legitimately cover any GPL version ?
With regards,
Daniel
