[YOCTO #1776] license: manifest and license path
This is a fairly large commit, so I want to step through some of
what this accomplishes:
1. Additional licenses
I've added/modified/corrected some of the common licenses
within OE-core in prep. for a major license audit. Most of these
are in SPDX format. A few, there is no OSI equivalent.
2. Additional SPDX mappings
I've added some additional SPDX mappings to account for removing
some duplicate licenses. (ie GPL-2 and GPL-2.0 were the same)
I've also remapped a few things to more accurately reflect what
they should be pointing at.
Note: Artistic/LGPL/GPL/MPL. Quite a few LICENSE fields list these
licenses. They make no sense and need auditing. In a future commit
I have some fixes to particularly egregious LICENSE fields, but
a full audit should be done. I've listed to obvious candidates at:
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/License_Audit
3. License manifest
We now have a license manifest generation that occurs in rootfs for
everything BUT .deb. This requires the changes Paul Eggleton has
done to rootfs_* particularly the list_installed_packages function.
The manifest is accurate during a parallel bitbake now (Weee!) and
is prime for my planned SPDX format manifest during the next period.
4. License manifest on image.
We also want the ability to add licenses to the image. This
functionality is also in base-files and will be stripped out in my
next commit. The manifest is not added by default and is a two var
setting in license.conf:
If I want *just* the manifest on the image (small) then I set:
COPY_LIC_MANIFEST = "1"
This copies the manifest to:
/usr/share/common-licenses/license.manifest
If I want the actual PKG license text on the image (much larger)
I need to set both both COPY_LIC_MANIFEST and COPY_LIC_DIRS in
license.conf. This will create:
/usr/share/common-licenses/(package name)/(licenses in LIC_SRC_URI)
Word of warning. This can be larger than wanted depending on image
and is probably ripe for linking licenses, but I ran out of time this
week to get that done.
5. Custom License search path.
We now have the ability to add licenses to the build without touching
common-licenses. This is set via license.conf:
LICENSE_PATH += "/path/to/custom/licenses"
You want to make sure the license is unique. license.bbclass picks the
first license it finds.

For example, a translation could be marked "The original work was -translated from English to Spanish," or a modification could indicate -"The original work has been modified."; -to Distribute and Publicly Perform the Work including as incorporated in -Collections; and, -to Distribute and Publicly Perform Adaptations. -For the avoidance of doubt: - -Non-waivable Compulsory License Schemes. In those jurisdictions in which the -right to collect royalties through any statutory or compulsory licensing scheme -cannot be waived, the Licensor reserves the exclusive right to collect such -royalties for any exercise by You of the rights granted under this License; -Waivable Compulsory License Schemes. In those jurisdictions in which the right -to collect royalties through any statutory or compulsory licensing scheme can -be waived, the Licensor waives the exclusive right to collect such royalties -for any exercise by You of the rights granted under this License; and, -Voluntary License Schemes. The Licensor waives the right to collect royalties, -whether individually or, in the event that the Licensor is a member of a -collecting society that administers voluntary licensing schemes, via that -society, from any exercise by You of the rights granted under this License. -The above rights may be exercised in all media and formats whether now known or -hereafter devised. The above rights include the right to make such -modifications as are technically necessary to exercise the rights in other -media and formats. Subject to Section 8(f), all rights not expressly granted by -Licensor are hereby reserved. - -4. Restrictions. The license granted in Section 3 above is expressly made -subject to and limited by the following restrictions: - -You may Distribute or Publicly Perform the Work only under the terms of this -License. You must include a copy of, or the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) -for, this License with every copy of the Work You Distribute or Publicly -Perform. You may not offer or impose any terms on the Work that restrict the -terms of this License or the ability of the recipient of the Work to exercise -the rights granted to that recipient under the terms of the License. You may -not sublicense the Work. You must keep intact all notices that refer to this -License and to the disclaimer of warranties with every copy of the Work You -Distribute or Publicly Perform. When You Distribute or Publicly Perform the -Work, You may not impose any effective technological measures on the Work that -restrict the ability of a recipient of the Work from You to exercise the rights -granted to that recipient under the terms of the License. This Section 4(a) -applies to the Work as incorporated in a Collection, but this does not require -the Collection apart from the Work itself to be made subject to the terms of -this License. If You create a Collection, upon notice from any Licensor You -must, to the extent practicable, remove from the Collection any credit as -required by Section 4(b), as requested. If You create an Adaptation, upon -notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent practicable, remove from the -Adaptation any credit as required by Section 4(b), as requested. -If You Distribute, or Publicly Perform the Work or any Adaptations or -Collections, You must, unless a request has been made pursuant to Section 4(a), -keep intact all copyright notices for the Work and provide, reasonable to the -medium or means You are utilizing: (i) the name of the Original Author (or -pseudonym, if applicable) if supplied, and/or if the Original Author and/or -Licensor designate another party or parties (e.g., a sponsor institute, -publishing entity, journal) for attribution ("Attribution Parties") -in Licensor's copyright notice, terms of service or by other reasonable means, -the name of such party or parties; (ii) the title of the Work if supplied; -(iii) to the extent reasonably practicable, the URI, if any, that Licensor -specifies to be associated with the Work, unless such URI does not refer to the -copyright notice or licensing information for the Work; and (iv) , consistent -with Section 3(b), in the case of an Adaptation, a credit identifying the use -of the Work in the Adaptation (e.g., "French translation of the Work by -Original Author," or "Screenplay based on original Work by Original -Author"). The credit required by this Section 4 (b) may be implemented in -any reasonable manner; provided, however, that in the case of a Adaptation or -Collection, at a minimum such credit will appear, if a credit for all -contributing authors of the Adaptation or Collection appears, then as part of -these credits and in a manner at least as prominent as the credits for the -other contributing authors. For the avoidance of doubt, You may only use the -credit required by this Section for the purpose of attribution in the manner -set out above and, by exercising Your rights under this License, You may not -implicitly or explicitly assert or imply any connection with, sponsorship or -endorsement by the Original Author, Licensor and/or Attribution Parties, as -appropriate, of You or Your use of the Work, without the separate, express -prior written permission of the Original Author, Licensor and/or Attribution -Parties. -Except as otherwise agreed in writing by the Licensor or as may be otherwise -permitted by applicable law, if You Reproduce, Distribute or Publicly Perform -the Work either by itself or as part of any Adaptations or Collections, You -must not distort, mutilate, modify or take other derogatory action in relation -to the Work which would be prejudicial to the Original Author's honor or -reputation. Licensor agrees that in those jurisdictions (e.g. Japan), in which -any exercise of the right granted in Section 3(b) of this License (the right to -make Adaptations) would be deemed to be a distortion, mutilation, modification -or other derogatory action prejudicial to the Original Author's honor and -reputation, the Licensor will waive or not assert, as appropriate, this -Section, to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable national law, to -enable You to reasonably exercise Your right under Section 3(b) of this License -(right to make Adaptations) but not otherwise. -5. Representations, Warranties and Disclaimer - -UNLESS OTHERWISE MUTUALLY AGREED TO BY THE PARTIES IN WRITING, LICENSOR OFFERS -THE WORK AS-IS AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND -CONCERNING THE WORK, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, -WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTIBILITY, FITNESS FOR A -PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR THE ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS, -ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OF ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT DISCOVERABLE. -SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO SUCH -EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. - -6. Limitation on Liability. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN -NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR BE LIABLE TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR ANY SPECIAL, -INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS -LICENSE OR THE USE OF THE WORK, EVEN IF LICENSOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE -POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. - -7. Termination - -This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically upon -any breach by You of the terms of this License. Individuals or entities who -have received Adaptations or Collections from You under this License, however, -will not have their licenses terminated provided such individuals or entities -remain in full compliance with those licenses. Sections 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, and 8 -will survive any termination of this License. -Subject to the above terms and conditions, the license granted here is -perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright in the Work). -Notwithstanding the above, Licensor reserves the right to release the Work -under different license terms or to stop distributing the Work at any time; -provided, however that any such election will not serve to withdraw this -License (or any other license that has been, or is required to be, granted -under the terms of this License), and this License will continue in full force -and effect unless terminated as stated above. -8. Miscellaneous - -Each time You Distribute or Publicly Perform the Work or a Collection, the -Licensor offers to the recipient a license to the Work on the same terms and -conditions as the license granted to You under this License. -Each time You Distribute or Publicly Perform an Adaptation, Licensor offers to -the recipient a license to the original Work on the same terms and conditions -as the license granted to You under this License. -If any provision of this License is invalid or unenforceable under applicable -law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the -terms of this License, and without further action by the parties to this -agreement, such provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to -make such provision valid and enforceable. -No term or provision of this License shall be deemed waived and no breach -consented to unless such waiver or consent shall be in writing and signed by -the party to be charged with such waiver or consent. -This License constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect -to the Work licensed here. There are no understandings, agreements or -representations with respect to the Work not specified here. Licensor shall not -be bound by any additional provisions that may appear in any communication from -You. This License may not be modified without the mutual written agreement of -the Licensor and You. -The rights granted under, and the subject matter referenced, in this License -were drafted utilizing the terminology of the Berne Convention for the -Protection of Literary and Artistic Works (as amended on September 28, 1979), -the Rome Convention of 1961, the WIPO Copyright Treaty of 1996, the WIPO -Performances and Phonograms Treaty of 1996 and the Universal Copyright -Convention (as revised on July 24, 1971). These rights and subject matter take -effect in the relevant jurisdiction in which the License terms are sought to be -enforced according to the corresponding provisions of the implementation of -those treaty provisions in the applicable national law. If the standard suite -of rights granted under applicable copyright law includes additional rights not -granted under this License, such additional rights are deemed to be included in -the License; this License is not intended to restrict the license of any rights -under applicable law. -Creative Commons Notice - -Creative Commons is not a party to this License, and makes no warranty -whatsoever in connection with the Work. Creative Commons will not be liable to -You or any party on any legal theory for any damages whatsoever, including -without limitation any general, special, incidental or consequential damages -arising in connection to this license. Notwithstanding the foregoing two (2) -sentences, if Creative Commons has expressly identified itself as the Licensor -hereunder, it shall have all rights and obligations of Licensor. - -Except for the limited purpose of indicating to the public that the Work is -licensed under the CCPL, Creative Commons does not authorize the use by either -party of the trademark "Creative Commons" or any related trademark or -logo of Creative Commons without the prior written consent of Creative Commons. -Any permitted use will be in compliance with Creative Commons' then-current -trademark usage guidelines, as may be published on its website or otherwise -made available upon request from time to time.
