KVASD is s soft-decision decoder for the Reed Solomon code RS(63,12) over
GF(64).  The driver is Copyright(C) 2005-2012 by Joseph H Taylor, Jr, K1JT.
The decoding algorithm is used under licence from CodeVector Technologies, LLC,
and is protected under US patent 6,634,007.

KVASD may be used freely by anyone for the purpose of facilitating
communication by Amateur Radio.  Any other use is strictly prohibited.

Must go into RPM Fusion non-free repository as it is a prebuilt binary with a
non-FOSS license. 

$ rpmlint ./kvasd-1.11-1.fc20.src.rpm
kvasd.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US licence -> license,
lenience, lice
- Direct copy from upstream

kvasd.src: W: invalid-license REDISTRIBUTABLE
- Open to suggestion here...

kvasd.src: W: strange-permission kvasd 0755L
- Prebuilt binary, nothing strange other than rpmlint doesn't like it


$ rpmlint ./kvasd-1.11-1.fc20.i686.rpm
kvasd.i686: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US licence -> license,
lenience, lice
- Same as above

kvasd.i686: W: invalid-license REDISTRIBUTABLE
- Same as above

kvasd.i686: W: no-manual-page-for-binary kvasd
- Binary is not designed for end user use, it is used directly by other
programs that I will submit in Fedora.
