Summary: a bit of license dimness
Description:
I wanted to particularize the xfce-4 package licenses for ROCK-Linux, but
noticed some ambiguosities:
- xfce4-systray.spec says "GPL", but the COPYING included is BSD
(including 4.0.1).
- xffm-icons.spec says "GPL", but the COPYING included is empty.
- xfce4-themes.spec says "BSD, custom", but the LICENSE-s included are GPL
and custom [DESIGN SCIENCE LICENSE].
Can you please clarify these? Sounds stupid, I know... but in these
SCO-lawsuit days it's good to be 100% sure.

I think all relevant packages have been updated. Please reopen when we
missed any.
