1 gentoo-x86/licenses contains the following licenses:
2 PSF-2.2
3 PSF-2.3
4 PSF-2.4
5 PYTHON
6
7 PSF-2.2, PSF-2.3 and PSF-2.4 contain some versions of Python Software Foundation License Version 2,
8 which differ only in versions of Python, copyright years etc. They also contain some history of
9 Python and licenses for Python 2.0 and older versions.
10
11 PYTHON contains only some history of Python and licenses for Python 2.0 and older versions.
12
13 I suggest that PSF-2 file is introduced, which will contain only Python Software Foundation
14 License Version 2 with "<YEARS>" instead of some specific years and will (slowly) replace
15 PSF-2.2, PSF-2.3, PSF-2.4 and PYTHON in values of LICENSE in ebuilds.
16
17 I'm attaching suggested PSF-2 file based on LICENSE file from default branch of Python upstream
18 repository.
