I wanted to particularize the xfce-4 package licenses for ROCK-Linux, but
noticed some ambiguosities:
- xfce4-systray.spec says "GPL", but the COPYING included is BSD (including
4.0.1).
- xffm-icons.spec says "GPL", but the COPYING included is empty.
- xfce4-themes.spec says "BSD, custom", but the LICENSE-s included are GPL
and custom [DESIGN SCIENCE LICENSE].
Can you please clarify these? Sounds stupid, I know... but in these SCO-lawsuit
days it's good to be 100% sure.

I think all relevant packages have been updated. Please reopen when we missed
any.

mass reassign from zz-do-not-use to general, so i can remove the zz-do-not-use
component.  sorry for the spam, search for this string to filter these:
