Re: 2-clause license for res_init.c
Also the same code is in NetBSD's tree at
http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/lib/libc/resolv/res_init.c
and
http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/external/bsd/libbind/dist/resolv/res_init.c
(There is also a significantly changed version under
src/dist/dhcp/minires/res_init.c which does have the license already
fixed.)
Note that you referred to a file in the CVS attic and under
src/dist/bind. "dist" and "external" (as seen in second link above)
means it is code maintained outside of NetBSD. In this case, it came
from ISC BIND 9. It was split out of BIND 9 (upstream) and is now
shipped in libbind. See https://www.isc.org/software/libbind
I submitted a bug report (#20413) at the upstream maintainer of that
file to get the licenses improved. (By getting it fixed there, the fix
will make it to NetBSD too.)
As for the libc version it was from the BIND 9 sources, so it missed the
license purge when NetBSD cleaned these up.
