need to address inability to set same license in multiple subpackages #64

Closed jrmarino closed 1 year ago

jrmarino commented 1 year ago

Ravenports supports multiple licenses and they can go in any package. What it can't do right right now is how the same license in multiple subpackages. The only workaround is to use the "custom" feature to fake it.

Figure out how ravenadm can address this shortcoming. Perhaps use the type and subpackage as a key?

no, because stuff like LICENSE_AWK= APACHE:"^$$" would be ambiguous and it would require a complete rewrite breaking all existing licenses.

I think we'll just have to use the CUSTOMX feature for now. There's no way to handle the ambiguity without breaking the current scheme across tons of ports.
