There is a problem which disturbs me since a while. From the OpenMotif license: The rights granted under this license are limited solely to distribution and sublicensing of the Contribution(s) on, with, or for operating systems which are themselves Open Source programs. "Open Source" programs mean software for which the source code is available without confidential or trade secret restrictions and for which the source code and object code are available for distribution without license charges. $ grep -r openmotif mk/platform/ mk/platform/BSDOS.mk:MOTIF_TYPE_DEFAULT?= openmotif # default 2.0 compatible libs type mk/platform/AIX.mk:MOTIF_TYPE_DEFAULT?= openmotif # default 2.0 compatible libs type mk/platform/Darwin.mk:MOTIF_TYPE_DEFAULT?= openmotif # default 2.0 compatible libs type mk/platform/DragonFly.mk:MOTIF_TYPE_DEFAULT?= openmotif # default 2.0 compatible libs type mk/platform/FreeBSD.mk:MOTIF_TYPE_DEFAULT?= openmotif # default 2.0 compatible libs type mk/platform/HPUX.mk:MOTIF_TYPE_DEFAULT?= openmotif # default 2.0 compatible libs type mk/platform/Interix.mk:MOTIF_TYPE_DEFAULT?= openmotif # default 2.0 compatible libs type mk/platform/Linux.mk:MOTIF_TYPE_DEFAULT?= openmotif # default 2.0 compatible libs type mk/platform/NetBSD.mk:MOTIF_TYPE_DEFAULT?= openmotif # default 2.0 compatible libs type mk/platform/OSF1.mk:MOTIF_TYPE_DEFAULT?= openmotif # default 2.0 compatible libs type mk/platform/OpenBSD.mk:MOTIF_TYPE_DEFAULT?= openmotif # default 2.0 compatible libs type We have to stop tricking our users into license violation by setting MOTIF_TYPE_DEFAULT to lesstif on our closed platforms where we use it now. These are OSF1, HPUX, BSDOS, AIX, and Interix*. Anyone objects this change? *Also a not trivial question: How to treat solaris/opensolaris and darwin? It should be possible to detect if its opensolaris for the first, but what about the latter (I guess it falls into the closed category)? -- Adam
