Post subject: License directive: valid or frequently used options???
Archived from groups: linux>redhat>rpm (more info?)

Hello,

When creating an RPM SPEC file (such as /usr/src/redhat/foo-1.0.0.spec) we
can find valid values for the "Group:" spec file directive in the following
file:

/usr/share/doc/rpm-4.3.1/GROUPS

There are several open source (OSI approved) licenses whose names could
be placed inside the "License:" directive of an RPM SPEC file. Some files
even have custom licenses which are in some ways OSI compatible.

I wonder whether there is a file on the system (that comes
with the rpm 4.3.1 or later package itself) analogous to:

/usr/share/doc/rpm-4.3.1/GROUPS

containing the names of the most common OSI approved licenses. Also, in
the case of an OSI compatible license which is not listed on the OSI site
what should be placed in this field (in case such a license does not have
a name? I would guess "OSI Compatible" or something like that.

Thanks,

Neil
