http://www.openbsd.org/4.2_packages/i386/ion-20070318p1.tgz-long.htmlThe version in tree is before the license change; the additional
restrictions on the newer code are a problem.
Your new license requires that all old OS releases with Ion(tm)
packages have upgrades made available within 28 days, even if
that OS release is no longer supported.
This is somewhat counter-productive imho, since the change
encourages people to continue distributing the obsolete code
that came with the standard LGPL (or just remove the package),
rather than update...
