Title:
Mislabelled licenses in "For Purchase" section
Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
"For Purchase" section in software centre apparently defaults to
showing proprietary for the license. The problem is that both Ryzom
and the Full Circle Magazines are not proprietary. Ryzom is released
mostly under AGPLv3 and CC-BY-SA licenses
(http://dev.ryzom.com/projects/ryzom/wiki), whilst FCM is licensed
under CC-BY-SA 3.0 Unported, as stated in any issue of the magazine
itself (http://fullcirclemagazine.org/).
This is not just a bug, it's a serious legal issue in misrepresenting
the license. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Copyfraud
Using Ubuntu 11.04, presumably applies to earlier versions.
