arraybolt3tsimonq2: Need some help with a strategy for fixing a copyright issue in lxqt-runner. TL;DR: Upstream LXQt has two icons in lxqt-runner that contain a Photoshop ICC profile under a DFSG-incompatible license. I can convert the ICC profiles with GIMP to fix the problem, but that will require either a manual repack or an overhaul of the packaging similar to what we and Tormod did in01:59
arraybolt3XScreenSaver. Thoughts?01:59
arraybolt3[m]Matrix apparently got the two parts of the one message backwards.01:59
arraybolt3[m](Obviously I'm going to file a bug report on this.)01:59
arraybolt3[m](On the copyright issue, not the Matrix scramble :P)02:01
* arraybolt3[m] starts to wonder if LXQt is going to start considering me the pedantic copyright-enforcing jerk :P02:05
tsimonq2"Proof or it didn't happen"02:06
tsimonq2As in, how did you find this out?02:06
arraybolt3[m]exiftool.02:06
arraybolt3[m]One moment...02:06
arraybolt3[m]Simon Quigley: https://pastebin.com/ZRMDFS7h02:07
arraybolt3[m]Notably, "Profile Name                    : Photoshop ICC profile"02:07
arraybolt3[m]Here's Adobe's license for the Adobe RGB (1998) ICC profile: https://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/iccprofiles/icc_eula_win_end.html02:08
arraybolt3[m]And according to the "Profile Copyright               : Copyright (c) 1998 Hewlett-Packard Company" line, that is indeed the profile we're dealing with.02:08
arraybolt3[m]The file "vrdp_16px.png" in the same directory as the pastebin shows also is affected.02:09
arraybolt3[m]According to a run of `for i in *; do echo $i; exiftool $i |& grep -i copyright; done`, those are the only two affected files in the directory.02:10
arraybolt3[m]And having used exiftool on the other image files in the repo, I'm certain that these are the only two affected files.02:11
arraybolt3[m]Assuming I have the time tomorrow (things are a bit crazy in $PERSONAL_LIFE), and unless anyone has objections, I'll attempt to edit the packaging to exclude the files with the proprietary ICC profiles when uscan is run, and copy in identical files with the GIMP ICC profile at build time in order to resolve this.10:58

tsimonq2arraybolt3: I'm confused on the part of the Adobe license that is DFSG-incompatible, maybe I was reading too quickly16:10
tsimonq2Either way, big day tomorrow. Feature Freeze and 22.04.2 :)16:10
arraybolt3tsimonq2: "No other distribution of the Software is allowed; including, without limitation, distribution of the Software when incorporated into or bundled with any application software. You may not modify the Software." (From the Adobe ICC license.) "The license must allow modifications and derived works, and must allow them to be distributed under the same terms as the license of the16:13
arraybolt3original software." (DFSG section 3.) Maybe it's just me, but those look like they contradict each other.16:13
tsimonq2Ahhhhh, that makes sense16:15
tsimonq2For sure, poke upstream too :)16:15
tsimonq2+1 on a repack in the meantime16:15
arraybolt3[m]Will do. Right now I'm getting roped into the 22.04.2 action though :P16:15
tsimonq2Have fun ;)16:15
arraybolt3:( We didn't update Calamares this cycle.23:19
arraybolt3nvm, we're using the latest version.23:19
arraybolt3Why did I not check that first. I even started to check it and thought we had a version to update.23:19
guivercI'm happy with the calamares we have already on jammy.2 arraybolt3 (or were you thinking lunar?)23:20
arraybolt3I was thinking Lunar.23:20
arraybolt3Last cycle we had so much Calamares activity I'm shocked that there wasn't a new release in that time. Either that or else Simon or Thomas already did it.23:21
arraybolt3Great news everyone, assuming that I have the upload access this time, the LXQt Debian sync debacle has been fully resolved as of whenever Britney gets around to letting the packages through.23:44
arraybolt3Accepted, yay!23:44
lubot[telegram] <Roberalz> Perfect!23:45
arraybolt3Meh, qterminal's stuck in -proposed on apport so I just asked for an autopkgtest retry.23:49
