Package: piwigo
Severity: serious
Tags: upstream
Justification: Policy 2.2.1
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512
Hello,
I found that the file include/template.class.php, which is a rename of the more
known jsmin.php [1] which is a rewriting in PHP of jsmin.c [2].
[1] https://github.com/douglascrockford/JSMin
[2] http://www.crockford.com/javascript/jsmin.html
The problem, which has already struck Google Code [3], Fedora [4] and Debian
for other packages that included jsmin.php, is that this code uses a non-free
license, in the form of a MIT/Expat license with one additional morality
clause:
> The Software shall be used for Good, not Evil.
[3] http://wonko.com/post/jsmin-isnt-welcome-on-google-code
[4] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=455507
And unfortunately, the original author of jsmin.c has strong ideas that make
him unwilling to change his license to conform to free software principles (the
DFSG in our case).
Since jsmin.php is only a JS minimizer, Piwigo should be able to work without
it with only a few modifications. I think that should take the form of a source
tarball repacking and a Debian-specific patch making jsmin facultative (that
is, if jsmin.php is not available, do not use it), but that patch could be
integrated upstream.
