So, a very heavy overlap with pdftk then. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pdftk http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pdftk

  pdftk was removed from Fedora linux because of itext5 license issues (https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2014-March/196394.html https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2014-March/1...).

    isn't itext released under the terms of the AGPL? While one may like or dislike the license, it should be considered OpenSource!?!

      If you follow the thread, this message is linked: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/legal/2011-June/001656.html https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/legal/2011-June/00... Which explains some more.

        A key part to take from the conversation: "I also know from working with Tom Callaway that the theoretical solution of using the section 7 permission to remove additional restrictions is not one that Fedora generally wishes to use, perhaps as a matter of policy. I would add that, speaking for Red Hat as distributor, we do not wish to use that permission in this instance." Ie: There is additional restrictions added to the AGPLv3 license in this specific case. The license allow fedora to remove them, but Fedora chooses not to do so.
