at least PKGBUILD.proto has it.
but plz add it to the man pages too [for example in makepkg]
ty
and I would start using License because It's extra important
I should expect in the near future,
IgnoreLicenseType = non-free
and similar stuff that would keep acroread {and not only}out of the way..?
licensetypes coud be gpl-lgpl-compatible {it includes the latest BSD license}, X11, and so on..

Hello Xentac. hmm I missed the 1. point it seems..
anyways, you 've added the license feature to Pacman.
so at least one can find it on the man makepkg in the fields where you mention url source etc..
I think that the IgnoreLicenseType = non-free is the way for AL to go
But I'm just user with some pkgs (at the moment) so you decide

But why mention it if we'll have to fix a bunch of packages later on because they're using the wrong method?

an array of strings??
because you can have dual licensing sometimes. like OOo
license=(LGPL SISSL)

My point is that we don't know exactly how the license field is going to be used (by the people who make packages and pacman), so we don't want to set anything now and have to change it later. Better to set it later and nat have to change anything till then.
