This makes it impossible to use/distribute godag as an open source project. All files need to have the GPL boilerplate, to be covered by the GPL itself: please see the "How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs" section in the LICENSE file shipped with godag itself to see how to fix this.

OK, I'll modify that.

this highlights a bigger issue; nobody reads the license :-)

Well, somebody does, clearly, right? :) I was looking at it with the idea of trying it and packaging it for debian if it ends up as a dependency for my project, and debian ftp-masters would definitely check every file :)

:-) true

the debian package built by the makefile (_gdmk.go) does not pass the lintian test due to the statically linked binary (gd). it may be allowed to add exceptions to this requirement, but i'm not 100% sure..

changed the copyright header on both branches now, let me know if it looks legit :-)

Thanks for the fix, seems allright. As for "official" debian packaging, we'll need to do it in a way that follows the debian policy, of course, so the one built by the makefile will not be used for it.

Thanks,

Guido

hi

you're right; that will certainly not pass any quality control at debian. :-)

hopefully you can get some wireframe stuff for free from the generated archive/deb, not a huge timesaver though..

i'll mark this issue as 'fixed', hopefully that's true

Thanks a lot! :) Don't worry, if there are problems I'll come back, thanks for your cooperation for now! I'll try to use godag, now that it's free software, and see what happens! :)

Thanks,

Guido

hehe, now it should be free as in freedom (and beer)

it's shameful that i did not know the basics of adding a license, well well; now i know :-)

to be honest i only downloaded the 'hello' package from debian, which is some sort of template for how to make debian packges i think. then i used that template as a starter, and worked with it until 'lintian' complained as little as possible, which is probably not the way the experts do it :-)

if you write a real deb-package-script, please let me know, i'd gladly replace the hack i've written to create deb-packages, it's not pretty..
