Hi!
Upstream binutils switched to GPLv3+ already more than a month ago.
While I guess I can delay switch to binutils-2.17.50.0.18 for a few
days, I can't do that forever.
Under GPLv3+ will be licensed both the programs (I don't imagine
how that could be a problem) but also libfd and libopcodes.
Checking current rawhide, following packages BuildRequire
binutils-devel and therefore very likely link against libbfd
or libopcodes. Can the maintainers check if their licensing
isn't incompatible with GPLv3+ licensed libbfd.a resp. libopcodes.a?
Thanks.
