I picked up the lft (Layer Four Traceroute, http://pwhois.org/lft/)
after it was orphaned a while back. I am not familiar with what
happened to the package before I picked it up or how it made it into
Fedora in the first place. Now there's a new version out, but also
the license (the "VOSTROM Public License") is strange and had never
been officially checked for acceptability in Fedora. The package also
requires a rebuild to pick up the buildID changes.
So, since the feature freeze is Tuesday, should I:
Leave License: tag as is (even though it's not listed in the
acceptable list) and push updated version to rawhide?
Leave License: tag as is, push a plain rebuild to rawhide?
Assume the license is non-free and remove the package from rawhide?
