Summary: gnuplot needs to be moved to z-rejected
Product: Codex
Version: stable grimoire
Platform: x86
URL: http://gnuplot.cvs.sourceforge.net/gnuplot/gnuplot/Cop
yright?view=markup
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: utils
AssignedTo: sm-grimoire-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
ReportedBy: ltdonny AT gmail.com


It seems gnuplot was placed in the grimoire as public domain in error.
Despite
its name, it's not actually completely libre since one can't distribute the
complete modified forms of the source code. However, one can distribute
patches to the original source code.

>From the license (URL linked to license):

"""
Permission to modify the software is granted, but not the right to distribute
the complete modified source code.
[...]
Permission to distribute binaries produced by compiling modified sources is
granted, provided you
1. distribute the corresponding source modifications from the
released version in the form of a patch file along with the binaries,
