The license contains nasty clauses like this: |
| 11 |
"If you are a European Consumer you must not export Software outside |
| 12 |
the country in which you download it without our prior written |
| 13 |
permission." |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I.e., if you install the software on your computer, you're not allowed |
| 16 |
to travel with it. Not sure if this would be enforceable for travel |
| 17 |
within the EU, but nevertheless, I suggest that you add the license to |
| 18 |
the @EULA group. And the ebuild needs mirror restriction, at least. |

"Adaptec" was previously used for a different license: |
| 21 |

| 22 |
So better choose another name to avoid confusion. |
