Hello Samba folks. I was poking through the recent changes being landed to PIDL in Wireshark (thank you for those!) and noticed that one of the files was being picked up as unlicensed by our buildbot. Specifically: 'epan/dissectors/pidl/idl_types.h' has non-whitelisted license 'UNKNOWN' A bit of digging reveals that this was an issue even before the recent PIDL changes, but I only just noticed the message. I'm assuming that this file is GPL2-licensed like everything else, in which case I can silence the license checker?
It comes from the librpc/idl directory in Samba, which is accompanied by the following license (see librpc/idl/IDL_LICENSE.txt): The IDL files in this directory are made available by the Samba Team under the following license: Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute these interface definitions for any purpose is hereby granted without fee.

P.S. 'epan/dissectors/pidl/mapi/request.cnf.c' and 'epan/dissectors/pidl/mapi/response.cnf.c' are also producing warnings, but I *think* that those are Wireshark's and are not upstream. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Yes, those are Wiresharks. Jelmer
