[aur-general] readline GPL violation on two pkgs?

[Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi]

Hi,

I just do a quick scan of soft linked with readline and  I think that
these two pkgs that are linked with readline violates GPL:

extra/tftp-hpa
community/ngspice

Both have the "old" BSD (4-clause) license and is linked with readline
that is GPL, so there is an incompatibility [#1]

In the case of ngspice recomends to link with libedit to avoid legal
issues [#2]


Cheers,
