License question (frink)
I'm just pkgsrc'ing frink (a TCL formatter/checker) and it comes with the
following license:

This looks like a 3-clause BSD license plus no-commercial-use.
Is there a matching license or do I have to create licenses/frink?
Do I have to set any NO_XXX variables due to the "other than its commercial
exploitation" clause?
