This doesn't make sense to me. I have a copy of every license used in |
| 9 |
the portage tree already in /usr/portage/licenses - why dup that again? |
| 10 |
We already have an existing LICENSE keywording in the ebuilds, why not |
| 11 |
just focus on patching portage to allow a make.conf variable for allowed |
| 12 |
licenses and block based on that? |
