Yes, I obviously can override whatever I wish but sweeping issues under
the rug like this ultimately doesn't benefit me.  It's yet more more
"diff" that I have to maintain and have break on me.

Now -- will FreeBSD ports committers set all tex ports to LPPL* for
consistency and tell the FreeBSD users to build them from source as a
consequence?  I kind of think having no tex packages in binary form will
go over like a lead balloon so I'm not really seeing how your suggestion
benefits the FreeBSD community.

I was trying to help resolve the problem for everyone, not just DF.
