It seems there is a bug lurking; you should have gotten a failure for whichever package you didn't stick the license in ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES, not a scan failure. > The new problem is that everything is building with python 38, but it > seems mongodb3 requires python 27 :( > > Is there any way to get this to play nicely? Other than having to hav py3X-scons not installed when you build mongodb3, and perhaps a desire to get rid of python 27 from yuor system, is there any real problem? > While I appreciate the efforts to keep the more better licensed > mongodb3 around for unifi controller 5 (Hi Greg!), maybe it's time to > add controller 6 to work with mongodb4? I didn't realize that 6 uses mongodb4 -- I was only holding off because of 1) lack or roun tuits 2) no urgent problem using 5 still and 3) still a bit scared after seeing reports that the first release or two of 6 worked badly enough that people lost the ability to admin their networks. Now I am down to 1, but such a change is too disruptive just before the branch. I am unclear on the mongo 4 license and how problematic it is -- whether it is merely not open source or truly problematic. I remember a fairly big kerfluffle when it came out. Of course, the net/unifi license is not open source, but that's not from a company whose home page seems to try to sell proprietary licenses to an open-core product but does not contain the words "open source" or "free software". Debian has declined to accept it as DFSG-free: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=915537 But, we are only talking about adding unifi6 and maybe dropping 5, nothing more. So there is probably not a reason to do anything other than update (with adequate functional testing).
