netperf: Correct license flags
From: Mark Hatle <mark.hatle at windriver.com>
I was helping someone with building netperf from meta-networking last
night, and stumbled on what I think is a bug.
SUMMARY = "A networking benchmarking tool"
DESCRIPTION = "Network performance benchmark including tests for TCP,
UDP, sockets, ATM and more."
SECTION = "console/network"
HOMEPAGE = "http://www.netperf.org/"
LICENSE = "netperf"
LICENSE_FLAGS = "commercial"
In the above, the LICENSE_FLAGS are set to 'commercial'. I think this
is incorrect. It should be set to 'non-commercial'.
There is a subtle difference between them which is why I think it's a
bug...
commercial -- there are some commercial requirements necessary to use
this recipe in a commercial device... you are responsible for
understanding them and doing whatever is necessary... (for
non-commercial devices you can likely use it...)
non-commercial -- this item is restricted to non-commercial users only.
As in the case of netperf, the license says it's only for
non-commercial use.
So anyway, my suggestion is to simply change the value of the flag.
