| | | | | | | | | | | | | [YOCTO #2230] 1.1+ had some incorrect license text. This corrects that text and adds licenses that didn't exist in 1.1+.

* common-licenses: Additions and correctionsBeth Flanagan2011-06-23151-2618/+13943
| | | | | | | | | | | | | I've added more licenses from SPDX and corrected the gcc license so that it is a. parsable and b. accurate to the SPDX standard. I've also done some cleanup of license text and gdb's LICENSE field.

* common-licenses: Adding new licenses and renamingBeth Flanagan2011-05-27126-2599/+21995
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I'm adding full common licenses to the common license directory. These licenses are taken from the SPDX project or the OSI license repository. They conform to the SPDX naming convention and will be used by the new license.bbclass license parser in order to maintain some sort of internal standard for license naming. Going forward, we should have a bigger conversation about the LICENSE field and standardizing that to conform to this naming standard.

* Initial commit of license reporting:Beth Flanagan2011-01-2813-0/+4670
This is an intial commit for the license reporting system. A few notes: The LICENSE fields needs to be standardized throughout poky. As it stands, we throw a warning if the license file is not found (either because it does not exist or because LICENSE_FILE_CHKSUM is munged) in the generic license directory. This should eventually become an error. I've seen a few places where Apache-v2.0 is written differently and I'm sure this will throw the above warning. This does not put the license data on the rootfs. Also, I provide both the actual license text and a link to the best guess of the generic_license. That guessing is not very robust and I'm loath to get into a bunch of pattern matching rather than standardize LICENSE. This adds one new param to poky.conf and one new to license.bbclass: LICENSE_DIR: the base directory we copy all the license results to (set in license.bbclass) COMMON_LICENSE_DIR: this is the directory that holds all the common generic license files. currently meta/files/common-licenses (set in poky.conf) TODO: - We should verify the common-licenses. I stripped these from my Ubuntu 10.10 system. - We should allow the capability of licenses on the rootfs, although the resulting image created would be a lot larger. - More common-licenses. I don't include bzip, zlib, ICS.... I should, but that means tracking down a lot of licenses. - General cleanup of licensing and standardization of names. We should standardize on a naming convention. What's in licenses.conf should match up with what is in the recipes which should match with what is in common-licenses. Outside the scope of this though.
