Installer requires you to agree to GPL2 to install - GPL only concerns distribution.
This should be removed - it is against Stallman's Freedom 0.

The only goal was to show the license to the user, to inform them of their freedoms...
(also serves as a convenient place to show the disclaimer from damages and no warranty)
That the Installer quits if not "accepting it" was a shortcoming/bug in Installer.app
Any pointers for how to disable the "Disagree/Agree" popup dialog cheerfully accepted.
It's possible that the 0.25 package will put the License outside the package instead.
But at any rate, it will definitely be available to the user as part of the install.
