I haven't checked all files, neither in kdelibs neither in kde4support. Our legal came with the indication about src/kssl/kssl/cert_extract.cpp. Quick grep showed me that they are only a few files in there (in src/kssl/) with GPL-2, and they produce a kcm plugin, and ca-bundle/calist. So yeah, declaring kde4support as GPL-2 indeed doesn't make sense ;-) Cheers, Hrvoje > Cheers, > Albert > > > TIA, and cheers, > > Hrvoje > > _______________________________________________ > Kde-frameworks-devel mailing list > Kde-frameworks-devel@kde.org > https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-frameworks-devel
