The code in the 'easel' subdirectory is under a different license, "The
Janelia Farm Software License". So you should do something like this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(license (list license:gpl3+
;; The bundled library 'easel' is distributed
;; under The Janelia Farm Software License.
(non-copyleft "file://easel/LICENSE"
"See easel/LICENSE in the distribution.")))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
It's not good that hmmer bundles its own copy of easel. If we ever need
easel for another package, we should find a way to build hmmer against
the external easel library. Having multiple copies of the same library
on the system potentially means multiple copies in RAM, and more
importantly: multiple copies that need to be patched for fixes,
especially security fixes.
However, we can cross that bridge when we come to it. From a brief
glance, it seems that separating the two will not be trivial :-/
