Before submitting a package, I'd be grateful if someone could check the licence [1]. It's a fairly standard 3-clause BSD affair, but with the caveat that 'the U.S. Government retains certain rights in this software.' It isn't clear (to me, at least) what rights are being referred to. Would such a clause prohibit its inclusion in Cygwin? Note that gcovr isn't available for Fedora or CentOS, although this could be because it hasn't been packaged for these distros, rather than any incompatibility in the licence. It is, however, available for Debian and Ubuntu [2]. Any thoughts on its suitability for Cygwin? Dave.
