[Pkg-electronics-devel] cocotb_2.0.0-1_multi.changes REJECTED

[Mechtilde Stehmann]

Hello Ahmed,

this package is rejected because of some license issues.

First of all files licensed under Apache 2 and files licensed under GPL v2 only are incompatible.

The second issue is that the LICENSE file describes the whole package should be under BSD-3-clause.

Along Par. 2b (https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.html) "you must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License."

You can ask upstream if they can make changes. 

If you need help to discuss it with upstream, I am willing to help you.

Kind regards
