Right, hadn't noticed that. Well, according to

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing/FAQ#How_do_I_figure_out_what_version_of_the_GPL.2FLGPL_my_package_is_under.3F

the COPYING file included is the last resort; if it's a GPL copying then
license tag should be set to GPL+, so that's OK.

Well, I'm not quite sure how to read the guidelines on this one.

The end result is that the package requires the libs package due to the .so
dependency, and since the xmms is very old this is probably OK.


The package has been

APPROVED
