cover License issue about dbus-python

Hi,

I would like to add dbus-python package to buildroot. I'm no license expert, and I do not know how I can fill the license field in the makefile. The COPYING file does not clearly give a license name.

Regards,

David Bachelart (1):

Thanks for the patch! However, as Gustavo Zacarias reported, we already have this package, under the name dbus-python. So I've marked your patch as Rejected in our patch tracking system. Do not hesitate to let us know if the existing dbus-python package doesn't work for you, for some reason.

Thanks!

Thomas

Hi.
That package has been in buildroot releases for some time now... as dbus-python (the proper upstream name) :)
Regards.
