You can always remove the package for x86_64. Just remove it from arch=() and don't ship the package for your architecture and you're fine. You don't have to port a package to both architectures ;) -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: arch-dev-public-bounces@archlinux.org [mailto:arch-dev-public-bounces@archlinux.org] Namens Andreas Radke Verzonden: donderdag 7 juni 2007 17:38 Aan: arch-dev-public@archlinux.org Onderwerp: Re: [arch-dev-public] ion3 in extra: licensing issues Am Thu, 7 Jun 2007 08:14:10 +0200 schrieb "Jan de Groot" <jan@jgc.homeip.net>:
So when you're out for a long while like you did a while ago, we're forced to update your packages, because it's illegal to leave it outdated. Multiple distributions don't ship ion3 due to this or ship the latest version under the old license. I don't think we should handle that different. Though the source is available, ion3 is non-free software, because it takes away the distributors freedom.
+1 for removal how should x86_64 handle that? codemac might have the ability to handle the license issues. we from the port cannot make sure to rebuild it quick enough all the time. also think off ppc? there's much more real open source software waiting to be maintained. just put this unfree crap into AUR and maintain it there.
