All,
With my recent submission of patches to fix missing license information, I
was curious to see how many packages are missing licensing information. I
have found that we are missing licensing information on 186 packages
according to my basic grep command. The command I used to get 186 is as
follows:
git grep -L "_LICENSE" package/*/*.mk | wc -l
Granted, this command isn't perfect and there are probably already some
packages that have license information defined in a subdirectory
(specifically thinking of gcc). However, I think that it gives a good idea
of how many packages are missing license files.
I will try to update license information for these files as times permits
but I thought I would share the list of packages that I found don't have
license information for them. The command I used is:
git grep -L "_LICENSE" package/*/*.mk | cut -d '/' -f2 | tr '\n' ' '
The list of packages:
