license.py: fix behaviour of copyleft_compliance

2012-04-04T15:50:34+00:00

actually if a package has a license in its LICENSE variable
which is not in the whitelist nor in the blacklist and even
if an other license in this variable is in the whitelist,
the package gets excluded and is not taken in account in the
copyleft_compliance.
This patch solves this by excluding a recipe _only_ if the
LICENSE variable includes a pattern from the blacklist and
including a recipe only if it includes a variable from the
whitelist _and_ none from the blacklist.

Example in busybox which has LICENSE="GPLv2 & BSD-4-Clause",
with the actual behaviour (where he blacklist contains only
CLOSED Proprietary) we get :
DEBUG: copyleft: busybox-1.19.4 is excluded: recipe has excluded licenses: BSD-4-Clause
which is not sane because busybox is covered by a copyleft license
which is GPLv2 and should match the default whitelist which is
GPL* LGPL*.

oe.license: add is_included convenience function

2012-01-17T14:52:59+00:00

Given a license string and whitelist and blacklist, determine if the
license string matches the whitelist and does not match the blacklist.

When encountering an OR, it prefers the side with the highest weight (more
included licenses). It then checks the inclusion of the flattened list of
licenses from there.

Returns a tuple holding the boolean state and a list of the applicable
licenses which were excluded (or None, if the state is True)

Examples:

    is_included, excluded = oe.license.is_included(licensestr, ['GPL*', 'LGPL*'])
    is_included, excluded = oe.license.is_included(licensestr, blacklist=['Proprietary', 'CLOSED'])

license: split license parsing into oe.license

2011-12-08T15:23:00+00:00

In addition to moving this functionality to oe.license, makes the string
preparation more picky before passing it off to the ast compilation. This
ensures that LICENSE entries like 'GPL/BSD' are seen as invalid (due to the
presence of the unsupported '/').
