Description Philipp Hahn univentionstaff 2018-12-14 16:39:48 CET
container/univention-docker-container-mode/sbin/init contains 4 functions copied from Shorewall, which is GPL licences, which is incompatible with our AGPL:
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affero_General_Public_License#Compatibility_with_the_GPL>

We should re-implement then in a clean room.

Probably okay as GPL-2+ → GPL-3 which is compatible with AGPL-3
