--- Begin Message ---Source: fluidsynth Version: 1.1.6-4 Severity: wishlist fluid_chorus.c is under a custom license, granting the following: This source code is freely redistributable and may be used for any purpose. The license does not grant the right to modify the software. Therefore, it is not compatible with GPL-2.1+ (sic) or LGPL-2.0+. Whether intentionally or not, Debian has been distributing this software without complying with GPL. Thus its rights have been automatically terminated. Ceasing violation does not restore rights and a new license should be acquired. I will remind you of the scope of such infringement. Since Debian does not have the right to distribute, it does not have the right to propagate the license. All Debian-based distros and their users have not automatically received a license through Debian. Because of the avalanche effect of GPL, all works based on these versions of FluidSynth have not received rights under GPL. The process recurs: all Debian-based distros, their users, and depending works have not received a license through this path. I will remind you of the potential severity. Like the patent troll phenomenon, some people profit from GPL reinstatements. The argument exists: If you have redistributed an application under GPLv2, but have violated the terms of GPLv2, you must request a reinstatement of rights from the copyright holders before making further distributions, or else cease distribution and modification of the software forever.[1] There are real cases based on this reasoning; e.g., BusyBox related.[2] Although the Software Freedom Law Center may not be interested in infringements caused because of FluidSynth, other parties may be. Is there anyone against successful free audio software? -- [1] https://www.softwarefreedom.org/resources/2008/compliance-guide.html [2] http://www.ecommercetimes.com/story/73241.html
