--- Comment #2 from Aleksei Bavshin <alebastr89(a)gmail.com> ---
Adding FE-Legal blocker.
https://github.com/saitoha/libsixel/blob/master/LICENSE.sixel looks benign and
the source files in question mention that the code was relicensed under
MIT[1][2]. I can't read the original license text though and not qualified to
make decisions on the custom licenses, however permissive these are.
Several sources are also originally distributed under public domain. In my
(limited) understanding that means it's fine to distribute the result under MIT
and keep the License tag as simple `MIT`.
Ben, can you please look into that and confirm that it's safe to consider the
combined work licensed as MIT? I hope we have someone who can read Japanese
flavor of legalese :)
