Lawyer says that, to the extent that ExtJS is licensed under GPLv3, there
is a license incompatibility here because of GPLv3/MPL incompatibility,
and thus the risk of violation of ExtJS's copyright. If LGPLv3 is the license,
on the other hand, there is no compatibility problem.

At one point, ExtJS was released under LGPLv3, but they've since changed to
release under GPLv3. Unfortunately, the testopia code doesn't give any
indication of when they pulled in their local copy of ExtJS, and all of the code
refers back to the website for licensing, which says GPLv3, so we can only
safely assume GPLv3.

The options here are:

1. Find a checkout of ExtJS that we know was released under the LGPLv3 and
replace what is in testopia with that.
2. Prove that the ExtJS bits in testopia were released under the LGPLv3 license.
3. Move testopia to use OpenExt (http://sourceforge.net/projects/openext/)
4. Don't put testopia in Fedora.

This package is legal blocked until one of those outcomes is reached.
