| hexa | contact the author! 😄 | 13:57:14 |
 stigo | I'm not quite sure about licensing, but generally modules on CPAN have "This is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as the Perl 5 programming language system itself." tacked on to the .pod | 13:57:15 |

contact the author! 😄 great! | 13:57:32 |
| hexa | pypi enforces redistributability | 13:57:36 |
| stigo | And perl is licensed with the artistic license, and gpl+ iirc | 13:57:46 |
| hexa | * pypi enforces redistributability (https://pypi.org/policy/terms-of-use/) | 13:58:25 |

And perl is licensed with the artistic license, and gpl+ iirc https://metacpan.org/pod/Software::License::Perl_5 this I guess? | 13:58:36 |
| hexa | * pypi at least enforces redistributability (https://pypi.org/policy/terms-of-use/) | 13:58:51 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | thats gpl1 only | 13:59:08 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | or is it? damn it | 13:59:27 |
| stigo | Software Foundation; either version 1, or (at your option) any
later version, or```

| 13:59:52 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | alright, that helps | 13:59:57 |
| stigo | https://metacpan.org/dist/Software-License/source/lib/Software/License/Perl_5.pm | 14:00:06 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | (I'm currently writing a meta generator for all perl packages) | 14:00:09 |
| stigo | (silly matrix paste) | 14:00:11 |
| stigo | So for gpl: " the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 1, or (at your option) any

https://metacpan.org/dist/Software-License/source/lib/Software/License/Perl_5.pm That module has conflicting info as it depends on Software::License::GPL_1 rather than Software::License::GPL_1::or_later | 14:00:50 |
| stigo | I guess LICENSE section here will be the correct one, not sure about the dependency tree for Software::License:. https://metacpan.org/release/RJBS/perl-5.36.0/source/README | 14:02:24 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | thanks, that's probably the best source available | 14:02:49 |
| stigo | That covers the majority of perl modules as they defer the licence to what perl is using. | 14:03:24 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | yeah I saw the license is just called perl-5 | 14:03:39 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | * yeah I saw the license is just called perl_5 | 14:03:41 |
| stigo | ... sometimes :D | 14:03:47 |
| stigo | The licence mapping just just copied from maintainers/scripts/nix-generate-from-cpan.pl | 14:05:27 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | found a bug in nix-update-cpan :/ | 14:05:59 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | it calls the constant-defer library defer when I do --list-nix-file | 14:06:14 |
| stigo | oh | 14:06:52 |
