earily today i updated the ebuilds for mac and xmms-mac, for those that dont know their applications for monkey's audio (.ape files), and got them submited to bug 94477[1] which was closed due to the way the licence was done
my issue is i think the ebuilds should be commited to portage as i dont see how the licence or issues that app has anything todo with a gentoo ebuild as all the ebuild does is fetch and install and its only told todo so upon the user requesting it to be so hence its the users choice to deal with the licence rather than the developers desiding for that user i can understand putting proper warning in the ebuild if the dev thinks that its worth the user really noting the issues surrounding it, not forcing their ideals onto the user if i wanted that i would run debian for those that havent figured it out yet from reading the above i dont care the politics of the issue with the licence all i want is the functionality of the ebuild concerned if it is the case that the devs believe the user is totally incapable of making choices for themselfs then i suggest putting up somewhere noting it as such 1: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94477 -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
