3rd party deb packages as being listed as "Proprietary" when opened
Asked by
Hamish McIntyre-Bhatty
I've seen this with a few packages, including some of my own. When opened with GNOME Software, the license is shown as proprietary, even though the package is GPL.
Does anyone know why? Is this a bug, or a packaging mistake?
lsb_release -a:
"No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS
Release: 16.04
Codename: xenial"
uname -a:
"Linux hamish-VirtualBox 4.4.0-165-generic #193-Ubuntu SMP Tue Sep 17 17:42:52 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux"
