Description
Expected Behavior
Files should have correct license text.
Current Behavior
As a part of https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/update-existing-packages/ , I'm reviewing license texts in source files in varnish.
In LICENCE file from varnish source file tarball, I can read that varnish is distributed under BSD-2-Clause license. When I tried to verify it, I ran licensecheck on those source files and I found some discontinuities:
These files have BSD-2-Clause-FreeBSD instead of BSD-2-Clause:
./bin/varnishtest/teken.c: BSD 2-clause FreeBSD License BSD 2-Clause License
./bin/varnishtest/teken.h: BSD 2-clause FreeBSD License BSD 2-Clause License
./bin/varnishtest/teken_scs.h: BSD 2-clause FreeBSD License BSD 2-Clause License
./bin/varnishtest/teken_subr.h: BSD 2-clause FreeBSD License BSD 2-Clause License
./bin/varnishtest/teken_subr_compat.h: BSD 2-clause FreeBSD License BSD 2-Clause License
./include/vsb.h: BSD 2-clause FreeBSD License
./include/vtree.h: BSD 2-clause FreeBSD License BSD 2-Clause License
./include/vend.h: BSD 2-clause FreeBSD License BSD 2-Clause License
./lib/libvarnish/vpf.c: BSD 2-clause FreeBSD License BSD 2-Clause License
./lib/libvarnish/vsb.c: BSD 2-clause FreeBSD License
Files in /lib/libvgz/ should have ZLib license according to /lib/libvgz/README
These files are looking like BSD-3-Clause clause:
./include/vpf.h: BSD 3-Clause License BSD 2-Clause License --- It has BSD-3-Clause identifier, but the text looks like BSD-2-Clause
./include/vqueue.h: BSD 3-Clause License - it is indeed BSD-3-Clause clause
./lib/libvarnishapi/daemon.c: BSD 3-Clause License --- It has BSD-3-Clause identifier, but after points 1. and 2., point 3. is missing and then there is point 4. (typo???)
Following files have Public domain license text in the header of file:
./bin/varnishncsa/b64.c: No copyright Public domain
./include/tbl/vhp_huffman.h: No copyright Public domain
./include/tbl/vhp_static.h: No copyright Public domain
./include/miniobj.h: No copyright Public domain
./vmod/vmod_blob_tbl_encodings.h: No copyright Public domain
