Other license-related notes:

  • When creating recipes for Python software, recipetool will now treat “BSD” as “BSD-3-Clause” for the purposes of setting LICENSE, as that is the most common understanding.

  • Please be aware that an Initramfs bundled with the kernel using INITRAMFS_IMAGE_BUNDLE should only contain GPLv2-compatible software; this is now mentioned in the documentation.
