<PRE>

I was looking at Mandriva non-free SRPM directory since Mageia doesn't have
much in non-free yet.
I haven't actually counted if the majority has source or not, so you might
be right, but we are digressing here because like I said in the first post
the question here in this thread is about a package that has code with a
non-free license but is open source (and is 'tainted').

To quote my initial mail:
&quot;... what the appropriate repository for a package is that's both non-free
(open source but not a FOSS license) and tainted (contains sw. that is
covered by patents in some parts of the world).&quot;

To complicate matters further this package will have dependencies to some
other 'tainted' packages, which also a reason why 'tainted' seems more
appropiate for this specifica package at least.
