great :) > Condor will never come to the main repository, since there is no > source code available. The Condor authors constantly reject demands for > the source code. i now realize that sources i have doesn't include main libraries and binaries :( i had contacts with Miron Livny, and he sounds interested by getting condor into debian and giving away sources. condor licence changed, maybe since you last asked for sources ? as stated in LICENCE.TXT, as of version 6.8.1 : "Installation, use, reproduction, display, modification and redistribution of this Software, with or without modification, in source and binary forms, are permitted." > > The Debian mentors also rejected to put the package into NON-FREE > section, where it would fit from my perspective. This might get better > if more users express their wish to have that. i will make a comprehensive analysis of condor's licence against dfsg and post it here. afaics, there is no restriction in condor's licence that forbids it to go into main archive. cheers, -- guillaume pernot http://www.praksys.org - Midi-Pyrénées et Aquitaine Membre du réseau Libre Entreprise GPG fingerprint : D356 5318 CE52 64C9 0CEF
