Not sure about the japanese font and about MIT or MIT-like

 IMHO LICENSE_FILES are not needed for Public Domain. The point of the license
file is to offer the complete license text, not to prove that the license is
right. For public domain, a complete license text is not needed.

 It is useful to have a comment of where you found this license, but if it is
just in the file itself, that's not really relevant.

 Hm, doesn't look that MIT-like to me. I'd call it 'Adobe Helvetica license'.

 I think that's a mistake... I submitted bug #815616 to debian.

 Yep, it's from the same source.

 It's a bit annoying that you'd have

Adobe Helvetica license (Helvetica fonts) Adobe Helvetica license (Japanese font)

i.e. the same thing twice. So I'd make it:

ifneq ($(BR2_PACKAGE_QT_FONT_HELVETICA)$(BR2_PACKAGE_QT_FONT_JAPANESE),)
QT_LICENSE += Adobe Helvetica license (Helvetica/Japanese fonts)
QT_LICENSE_FILES += src/3rdparty/fonts/COPYING.Helvetica
endif

 Also not that MIT-like, so make it 'Bitstream license'.


 The problem with the way that it's done now is that the different licenses will
not be comma-separated while they usually are. But adding commas is difficult in
this case, so OK.

 Arnout

Arnout,

Thanks a lot for having reviewed this patch, which is not very simple
in terms of licensing details.

I thought we could do something such as:

QT_LICENSE += Foo (bar),
QT_LICENSE += Bar (foo),
QT_LICENSE += Baz (boz),
QT_LICENSE := $(patsubst %$(comma),%,$(QT_LICENSE))

But it unfortunately seems to remove all commas. We could then do:

QT_FINAL_LICENSE = $(shell echo "$(QT_LICENSE)" | sed 's:\(.*\),:\1:')

Not super pretty, but it's just one line of crap.

 Actually, that last bit could be moved to the legal-info infra itself, e.g. in
the legal-manifest function.

 But that's for another patch :-)

Will try Thomas suggestion for adding commas....

Wanted to do a similar patch for qt5base, but did not find the license files,
see QTBUG-46655 ([1]), after some discussion on the mailing list ([2]) the
decision was to drop the bundled fonts (abandoned: [3], [4], merged: [5], [6])...

Regards,
Peter
