# $NetBSD: license.mk,v 1.4 2007/07/20 13:05:28 gdt Exp $
#
# Note: This file is in draft state and not yet actively used.
#
# This file handles everything about the LICENSE variable. It is
# included automatically by bsd.pkg.mk.
#
# XXX: Some of this content arguably belongs in the pkgsrc guide
# instead.
#
# === User-settable variables ===
#
# ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES
# If a package declares a license and that license is not a
# member of the list defined by this variable, pkgsrc will
# refuse to build the package.
#
# XXX: pkg_install should also check LICENSE and decline to
# install if it is not in ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES.
#
# XXX: Perhaps there should be some mechanism to prevent running
# programs that are part of packages that declare LICENSEs that
# are not in ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES or some per-user variable.
# This is surely controversial and requires discussion.
#
# To include the default licenses, you can use the += operator
# in mk.conf. To override it, use the plain = operator.
#
# Default value: ${DEFAULT_ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES}
#
# === Package-settable variables ===
#
# LICENSE
# The license of the package.
#
# When the package has multiple licenses, there are many different
# cases. Some packages use an OR-combination, while others use an
# AND-combination. Currently, pkgsrc can only handle a single
# license per package. For now, add a description of the licensing
# to ../doc/TODO, section "Licenses of packages". Note that in
# such cases, one can place the text of both licenses in
# licenses/foo-license and reference it.
#
# Every package should specify its license. (Prior to July 2007,
# Open Source and Free software did not have license tags.)
#
# Licenses are collected in the licenses/ subdirectory of
# pkgsrc. For open source license, we generally use the same
# names as either the Open Source Initiative or the Free
# Software Foundation, choosing a name to reduce confusion.
# Open source and free licenses do not have a -license suffix,
# and non-free licenses do.
#
# http://opensource.org/licenses/category
# http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/index_html
#
# === Predefined variables ===
#
# DEFAULT_ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES
# The list of licenses that before July, 2007 did not require
# tagging because they were Open Source or Free. The intent is
# to make it contain licenses that are Open Source or Free and
# not controversial, so as to provide a default that almost all
# people find acceptable. (Many people will want to add more
# licenses to ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES; the point is to have a
# default that very few people want to shrink.)
#
# === See also ===

# TODO: Determine whether GPLv3 should be included (and therefore if

# approve GPLv3 as open source.
# This list is not complete. Free and Open Source licenses should be
# added to the list as they are added to pkgsrc.
