I was just looking at some of the changes in Rancid 3.0 alpha and I saw
that this clause was added to the license:
+## 6. Parties packaging or redistributing RANCID MAY NOT distribute altered
+## versions of the etc/rancid.types.base file nor alter how this file is
+## handled. The purpose of this condition is to help keep our support
+## costs down.
This change makes Rancid non-Free and could be problematic for
distributions that package Rancid. I know that in particular it will be a
problem for Fedora.
