| 1 | As discussed here¹, the author of cdrtools, Jörg Schilling, violates the GPL |
| 2 | in his application, by building GPL software with CDDL licensed makefiles as |
| 3 | well as linking mkisofs to libscg, which he relicensed to CDDL lately. Debian |
| 4 | seems to fork² cdrtools therefore. |
| 5 | |
| 6 | Imho we have to remove the partly and incompatible relicensed cdrtools-2.01.01 |
| 7 | alpha ebuilds from the tree. |
