Due to the included file, your port has not set the LICENSE to "LGPL3" but to "theme". That is a severe problem, you're not allowed to just put another license on that port. It's also not "look at the Makefile, the intention is clear": the LICENSE field ends up in the package, and there's no weaseling around the problem. Code bugs may be annoying, but "wrong license" is a mistake with potential to awaken the lawyers. Fix it. Regards, Christoph -- Spare Space
