In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org
(off-topic, but Gaétan Lepage maybe you'd be interested in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/342112 too then)
Thanks ! I am not involved this much into CUDA but I think that this policy makes sense.

@kamillaova:matrix.orgKamilla 'ovadoes anyone know this problem? https://hydra.nix-community.org/nar/lw2macnzp3av47m41qv6vcnq2daibgl1-libunistring-1.212:10:51
@kamillaova:matrix.orgKamilla 'ova sudo nix-store -r /nix/store/r40gsqikj02jycsg9c19lx0pkrclyapf-aseprite-1.3.7 --extra-substituters https://nix-community.cachix.org --option require-sigs false

https://www.aseprite.org/faq/#can-i-redistribute-aseprite

I'll leave that without comments...
12:32:38
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn "you cannot redistribute compiled versions of Aseprite." "You can still compile the source code, and use the program to create your assets for commercial games." I'm not sure compiling and distributing is the same thing as *re*distributing binaries. 13:01:46
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyit is unambiguously a violation13:04:09
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily(b) Distribution. You may not distribute copies of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT to third parties. Evaluation versions available for download from the Licensor's websites may be freely distributed.13:04:12
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily(g) Source code. You may only compile and modify the source code of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT for your own personal purpose or to propose a contribution to the SOFTWARE PRODUCT.13:04:18
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily(ok, "and modify" is vague there)13:04:26
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilybut we also apply patches, so it applies there too.13:04:43
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn That's in an End-User license agreement though. 13:04:45
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilythat EULA is the only thing granting any permission to modify or distribute at all13:05:00
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn If you're only building and distributing you're not an end-user. 13:05:01
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyotherwise it's just an unambiguous copyright violation13:05:11
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily FWIW it's fine in Nixpkgs because it's marked as unfree (not unfreeRedistributable) 13:05:19
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilybut I guess something on the nix-community infra is putting it in a cache when it really shouldn'13:05:35
@toonn:matrix.orgtoonn The copyright is on the source code though, not the binaries. 13:05:36
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily * but I guess something on the nix-community infra is putting it in a cache when it really shouldn't13:05:37
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyyes, and binaries are derivative works of source code13:05:46
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyand Nixpkgs patches the source before compiling, so it also prepares a derivative work of the source code in the process13:05:59

@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyright. maybe related to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/342529 https://github.com/numtide/nixpkgs-unfree ?13:10:31
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily building and redistributing unfreeRedistributable is already a minefield given the various complex use restrictions many of those licences have, but doing it for unfree is a terrible idea 13:10:58

right. maybe related to https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/342529 https://github.com/numtide/nixpkgs-unfree ?
indeed related https://hydra.nix-community.org/jobset/nixpkgs/unfree#tabs-configuration
13:11:38
@kamillaova:matrix.orgKamilla 'ovalast time I checked nixpkgs-unfree (~1 year ago) aseprite was not in their cache13:11:44
