--- Comment #2 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
Then it seems the problem is that we ask the question "is this an OSI or FSF
approved free license?"

And if we get a no, we present that in the UI as "this app uses a proprietary
license". Discover's interpretation is questionable here.

Maybe we need three states here:
1. Free software (uses an OSI or FSF-approved license)
2. Unfree software (license is explicitly marked as "proprietary")
3. Unknown licensing state (Doesn't use an OSI or FSF-approved license, but
isn't explicitly marked as proprietary; read the license yourself to see what
you can and can't do with it)
