Tristan Tarrant commented on ISPN-2179:
---------------------------------------
Indeed, so that needs to be rectified with the RHQ group. However, rhq-pluginAnnotations
should not be carried over as a dependency, but should only be a compile-time requirement.
Because of a bug with the Java 6 compiler, builds will fail if compiling against
infinispan without that dependency, but it is not required to be present at runtime.
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.
