Koji build from updated SRPM: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=53204423
Looks like Expat, not MIT. They're two different licenses (ran into something like this in my Ubuntu packages where it was Expat but I said MIT).
Interesting. According to Wikipedia, MIT and Expat are the same license, though there seem to be some nuances: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIT_License Expat is not mentioned on the MIT licensing Fedora wiki page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:MIT However, I compared the text of the "Expat License" from Wikipedia and the so-called "Modern Style with sublicense" and they match: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:MIT#Modern_Style_with_sublicense The same is true for the license header in jack_mixer-release-13/nsmclient.py. That's the "Modern Style with sublicense" MIT license.
The weird thing is that licensecheck reports "Expat License" very often, but I can't remember seeing it ever report "MIT License" instead.
# nsmclient.py is expat, everything else is GPLv2 License: GPLv2 and Expat
Per above comments, it should still read "MIT" instead of "Expat". However, if Expat really is a different license, this needs to go through Fedora Legal, because it's not a recognized valid license.
Fedora recognizes the "Expat license" as an MIT license variant, and the correct classification is "MIT" for Fedora license tags.
licensecheck is from Debian, so it reports output the same way Debian does.
Ran into this when I tried that:
No matching package to install: 'python3dist(cairo)' No matching package to install: 'python3dist(gobject)'
So, considering every other package I've done with python dependencies, this is the first time I've run into that requirement. Apparently it doesn't work.
Could be something up with the GTK related Python packages then. Standardized Python Requires and BuildRequires are covered here: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Python/ #_requires_and_buildrequires_with_standardized_names
The names are python3dist(pycairo) and python3dist(pygobject).
