Pillow is a Python package that has FreeType as an optional dependency. = While people can build Pillow from source, and choose whether or not to = include FreeType when they do so, we also distribute prebuilt 'wheels' = that include FreeType. Over at https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow/issues/8880, debate has = arisen about FreeType's two licenses - does Pillow need to pick one, or = is it up to our users to decide that for themselves? If it is up to Pillow, do you have any additional thoughts on how to = best document that? At the moment in = https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow/blob/main/wheels/dependency_licens= es/FREETYPE2.txt, we are simply concatenating your LICENSE.TXT, = docs/GPLv2.TXT, src/bdf/README and src/pcf/README. Thanks very much=
