ok, so how to fix this?

up until now, the code was bascically the same as now, just that jslint= was an external dependency. it downloaded nonfree code without user agreem= ent or notification.

should i just return to the downloading begavior for JSLint = and show the user a license agreement when they first try to use JSLint? or= should i remove JSLint and only leave JSHint (which is plain MIT licensed)=

again: reverting is NOT an option, since the previous behavi= or had the same problem, just less visible

No. The KDE source code must not contain non-free code which this is.= You have
to remove it from the repository.
