The Metric and Operation annotations in the org.rhq.helpers.pluginAnnotations.agent
package should use the LGPL license (the other annotations in the same package do so
already).
Incompatible licensed GPL library
org.rhq.helpers:rhq-pluginAnnotations used as a dependency
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: ISPN-2179
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-2179
Project: Infinispan
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 5.1.5.FINAL
Reporter: Sergiu Dumitriu
Assignee: Tristan Tarrant
Fix For: 5.2.0.Beta1, 5.2.0.Final
The RHQ project is licensed under the GPL 2.0, which means that any project that uses RHQ
libraries becomes GPL. Not only does this contradict Infinispan's license, but
it's also a hidden dependency on a GPL library that makes any other project that
thinks it's only using LGPL-compatible libraries actually a GPL project.
