You've put the license inside zsd itself, and it's an ISC one. Documenting that choice has no effect on end users, given that your 'zsd' tool is licensed as ISC regardless of whether ports/packages know off it. ISC being among the most permissive licenses, I propose a single license tag like so: LICENSE= ISC ISC is known to the ports framework, and hence attributes like LICENSE_PERMS, LICENSE_GROUPS and LICENSE_NAME are set by the framework. LICENSE_FILE is typically used in cases where there's a separate file (usually called LICENSE, or COPYING), but again this isn't the current case with zsd. And the ISC license is common enough not to require setting LICENSE_TEXT. (For reference on attributes, https://wiki.freebsd.org/PortsLicenseInfrastructure#For_the_user ) All consequences of licensing arise with the choice to publish a version of the software. Documenting this choice in ports is a must to ensure users know what they're getting: some people (or, FreeBSD derivatives) may have a policy of not using non-permissive licenses (including all those not explicitly documented), and in cases like this one no harm will come from documenting what was intended at publication. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
