license: manifest and license path
This is a fairly large commit, so I want to step through some of what this accomplishes: 1. Additional licenses I've added/modified/corrected some of the common licenses within OE-core in prep. for a major license audit. Most of these are in SPDX format. A few, there is no OSI equivalent. 2. Additional SPDX mappings I've added some additional SPDX mappings to account for removing some duplicate licenses. (ie GPL-2 and GPL-2.0 were the same) I've also remapped a few things to more accurately reflect what they should be pointing at. Note: Artistic/LGPL/GPL/MPL. Quite a few LICENSE fields list these licenses. They make no sense and need auditing. In a future commit I have some fixes to particularly egregious LICENSE fields, but a full audit should be done. I've listed to obvious candidates at: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/License_Audit 3. License manifest We now have a license manifest generation that occurs in rootfs for everything BUT .deb. This requires the changes Paul Eggleton has done to rootfs_* particularly the list_installed_packages function. The manifest is accurate during a parallel bitbake now (Weee!) and is prime for my planned SPDX format manifest during the next period. 4. License manifest on image. We also want the ability to add licenses to the image. This functionality is also in base-files and will be stripped out in my next commit. The manifest is not added by default and is a two var setting in license.conf: If I want *just* the manifest on the image (small) then I set: COPY_LIC_MANIFEST = "1" This copies the manifest to: /usr/share/common-licenses/license.manifest If I want the actual PKG license text on the image (much larger) I need to set both both COPY_LIC_MANIFEST and COPY_LIC_DIRS in license.conf. This will create: /usr/share/common-licenses/(package name)/(licenses in LIC_SRC_URI) Word of warning. This can be larger than wanted depending on image and is probably ripe for linking licenses, but I ran out of time this week to get that done. 5. Custom License search path. We now have the ability to add licenses to the build without touching common-licenses. This is set via license.conf: LICENSE_PATH += "/path/to/custom/licenses" You want to make sure the license is unique. license.bbclass picks the first license it finds.

21CONTAINED HERE IN CONSIDERATION OF YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH TERMS AND

241. Definitions
25
26"Collective Work" means a work, such as a periodical issue, anthology
27or encyclopedia, in which the Work in its entirety in unmodified form, along
28with a number of other contributions, constituting separate and independent
29works in themselves, are assembled into a collective whole. A work that
30constitutes a Collective Work will not be considered a Derivative Work (as
31defined below) for the purposes of this License.
32"Derivative Work" means a work based upon the Work or upon the Work
33and other pre-existing works, such as a translation, musical arrangement,
34dramatization, fictionalization, motion picture version, sound recording, art
35reproduction, abridgment, condensation, or any other form in which the Work may
36be recast, transformed, or adapted, except that a work that constitutes a
37Collective Work will not be considered a Derivative Work for the purpose of
38this License. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical
39composition or sound recording, the synchronization of the Work in timed-
40relation with a moving image ("synching") will be considered a
41Derivative Work for the purpose of this License.
42"Licensor" means the individual or entity that offers the Work under
43the terms of this License.

70including as incorporated in Collective Works;
71to distribute copies or phonorecords of, display publicly, perform publicly,
72and perform publicly by means of a digital audio transmission Derivative Works.
73For the avoidance of doubt, where the work is a musical composition:
74
75Performance Royalties Under Blanket Licenses. Licensor waives the exclusive
76right to collect, whether individually or via a performance rights society
77(e.g. ASCAP, BMI, SESAC), royalties for the public performance or public
78digital performance (e.g. webcast) of the Work.
79Mechanical Rights and Statutory Royalties. Licensor waives the exclusive right
80to collect, whether individually or via a music rights society or designated

83license created by 17 USC Section 115 of the US Copyright Act (or the
84equivalent in other jurisdictions).
85Webcasting Rights and Statutory Royalties. For the avoidance of doubt, where

90Copyright Act (or the equivalent in other jurisdictions).
91The above rights may be exercised in all media and formats whether now known or
92hereafter devised. The above rights include the right to make such
93modifications as are technically necessary to exercise the rights in other
94media and formats. All rights not expressly granted by Licensor are hereby
95reserved.
96
974. Restrictions.The license granted in Section 3 above is expressly made
98subject to and limited by the following restrictions:
99
100You may distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally
101perform the Work only under the terms of this License, and You must include a
102copy of, or the Uniform Resource Identifier for, this License with every copy
103or phonorecord of the Work You distribute, publicly display, publicly perform,
104or publicly digitally perform. You may not offer or impose any terms on the
105Work that alter or restrict the terms of this License or the recipients'
106exercise of the rights granted hereunder. You may not sublicense the Work. You
107must keep intact all notices that refer to this License and to the disclaimer
108of warranties. You may not distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or
109publicly digitally perform the Work with any technological measures that
110control access or use of the Work in a manner inconsistent with the terms of
111this License Agreement. The above applies to the Work as incorporated in a
112Collective Work, but this does not require the Collective Work apart from the
113Work itself to be made subject to the terms of this License. If You create a
114Collective Work, upon notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent
115practicable, remove from the Collective Work any credit as required by clause 4
116(c), as requested. If You create a Derivative Work, upon notice from any
117Licensor You must, to the extent practicable, remove from the Derivative Work
118any credit as required by clause 4(c), as requested.
119You may distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally
120perform a Derivative Work only under the terms of this License, a later version
121of this License with the same License Elements as this License, or a Creative
122Commons iCommons license that contains the same License Elements as this
123License (e.g. Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 Japan). You must include a copy of, or
124the Uniform Resource Identifier for, this License or other license specified in
125the previous sentence with every copy or phonorecord of each Derivative Work
126You distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally
127perform. You may not offer or impose any terms on the Derivative Works that
128alter or restrict the terms of this License or the recipients' exercise of the
129rights granted hereunder, and You must keep intact all notices that refer to
130this License and to the disclaimer of warranties. You may not distribute,
131publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally perform the
132Derivative Work with any technological measures that control access or use of
133the Work in a manner inconsistent with the terms of this License Agreement. The
134above applies to the Derivative Work as incorporated in a Collective Work, but
135this does not require the Collective Work apart from the Derivative Work itself
136to be made subject to the terms of this License.
137If you distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally
138perform the Work or any Derivative Works or Collective Works, You must keep
139intact all copyright notices for the Work and provide, reasonable to the medium
140or means You are utilizing: (i) the name of the Original Author (or pseudonym,
141if applicable) if supplied, and/or (ii) if the Original Author and/or Licensor
142designate another party or parties (e.g. a sponsor institute, publishing
143entity, journal) for attribution in Licensor's copyright notice, terms of
144service or by other reasonable means, the name of such party or parties; the
145title of the Work if supplied; to the extent reasonably practicable, the
146Uniform Resource Identifier, if any, that Licensor specifies to be associated
147with the Work, unless such URI does not refer to the copyright notice or
148licensing information for the Work; and in the case of a Derivative Work, a
149credit identifying the use of the Work in the Derivative Work (e.g.,
150"French translation of the Work by Original Author," or
151"Screenplay based on original Work by Original Author"). Such credit
152may be implemented in any reasonable manner; provided, however, that in the
153case of a Derivative Work or Collective Work, at a minimum such credit will
154appear where any other comparable authorship credit appears and in a manner at
155least as prominent as such other comparable authorship credit.
1565. Representations, Warranties and Disclaimer
157
158UNLESS OTHERWISE AGREED TO BY THE PARTIES IN WRITING, LICENSOR OFFERS THE WORK
159AS-IS AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND CONCERNING THE
160MATERIALS, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
161LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTIBILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
162PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR THE ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS, ACCURACY,
163OR THE PRESENCE OF ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT DISCOVERABLE. SOME
164JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO SUCH
165EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
166
1676. Limitation on Liability. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN
168NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR BE LIABLE TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR ANY SPECIAL,
169INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS

171POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
172
1737. Termination
174

176any breach by You of the terms of this License. Individuals or entities who
177have received Derivative Works or Collective Works from You under this License,
178however, will not have their licenses terminated provided such individuals or
179entities remain in full compliance with those licenses. Sections 1, 2, 5, 6, 7,
180and 8 will survive any termination of this License.
181Subject to the above terms and conditions, the license granted here is
182perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright in the Work).
183Notwithstanding the above, Licensor reserves the right to release the Work
184under different license terms or to stop distributing the Work at any time;
185provided, however that any such election will not serve to withdraw this
186License (or any other license that has been, or is required to be, granted
187under the terms of this License), and this License will continue in full force
188and effect unless terminated as stated above.
1898. Miscellaneous

192Work, the Licensor offers to the recipient a license to the Work on the same
193terms and conditions as the license granted to You under this License.
194Each time You distribute or publicly digitally perform a Derivative Work,
195Licensor offers to the recipient a license to the original Work on the same
196terms and conditions as the license granted to You under this License.
197If any provision of this License is invalid or unenforceable under applicable
198law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the
199terms of this License, and without further action by the parties to this
200agreement, such provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to
201make such provision valid and enforceable.

208be bound by any additional provisions that may appear in any communication from
209You. This License may not be modified without the mutual written agreement of
210the Licensor and You.
