Reference to GPL license remains in source file #40
Comments
@glejeune Is there a motivation to keep a dependency towards a GPL script? It seems that keeping this GPL-licensed script bundled into the published package mark the package as GPL. NPM registry flags the package as GPL, see: https://www.npmjs.com/package/graphviz. |
Bumping this issue as well. Graphviz continues to effectively be GPL due to this file. |
A new MIT-only release on npm would really be helpful. Thanks! |
Since this issue is open since now 2 years I thought that republishing to npm with a mention in the README would be a good solution, so here it is https://www.npmjs.com/package/graphviz-mit Warning that I do not plan to maintain it, I just cloned the project, added a line in the README and ran npm publish. |
The new package graphviz-mit has a package.json with MIT license, but unfortunately this does not solve the two problems from the beginning of this issue-thread raised by @petergrau and @nemtsov
As @VReichelt said: |
With #32 my understanding is that the valid license is
MIT
. However in this file (https://github.com/glejeune/node-graphviz/blob/master/lib/ext/gvpr/dot2js.g) there is still a GPL license referenced. Can that be removed as well?The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
