LICENSE_DISTFILES* is about distfiles, the things in /usr/ports/distfiles, not about the files in the work directory. You can say "this tar.gz is PD, and this tar.gz is GPL" but not more than that. What you want is LICENSE= PD OTHER LICENSE_COMB= multi (Note if the other license is not defined, you have to define it further.) -- Mathieu Arnold
