Now, that is wrong as far as I can tell; Zsh is not under GPL= =20 license and it IIRC several times it was mentioned on zsh-workers that Zsh = won't=20 be put under GPL (I may be wrong here). This poses several questions. If we need License tag in RPM - how should it be called? Zsh comes with LIC= ENSE=20 file but that is not anything from "commonly used" license. Possibly more question to zsh-workers - should I remove License: GPL from=20 Mandriva RPM? To cooker - if we cannot put any "common" open source license tag in zsh RP= M -=20 is it allowed to be distributed via main repository? =46or reference, below is contents of LICENSE file that comes with Zsh: The Z Shell is copyright (c) 1992-2007 Paul Falstad, Richard Coleman, Zolt=C3=A1n Hidv=C3=A9gi, Andrew Main, Peter Stephenson, Sven Wischnowsky, = and others.
