Python wheels: including licenses for libsndfile dependencies

Open threexc opened this issue 4 months ago • 1 comments

The libsndfile repo lists several different dependencies required, most of which are BSD-licensed:

sudo apt install autoconf autogen automake build-essential libasound2-dev \
  libflac-dev libogg-dev libtool libvorbis-dev libopus-dev libmp3lame-dev \
  libmpg123-dev pkg-config python

Specifically:

libasound2-dev: LGPL-2.1+ libflac-dev: GPL-2+ or LGPL-2.1+ libmp3lame-dev: Various (LGPL-2+) libmpg123-dev: LGPL 2.1 libogg-dev: BSD-3-Clause libopus-dev: BSD-3-Clause libvorbis-dev: BSD-3-Clause

Since there's some linking going on, I think the wheels need to include license information for these projects. Would a PR to change this be helpful?
