Novell / SUSE Linux AG _cannot_ speak, in that regard, for Adobe
Systems, Inc., RealNetworks, Inc, Matrica Informationstechnologien GmbH,
or Opera Software ASA, copyright owners of the included Acrobat Reader,
RealPlayer, Moneyplex, and Opera Web Browser packages. It can speak
only concerning its own code, such as YaST/YaST2.

I believe this was the condition placed specifically on _earlier_
releases of YaST/YaST2, prior to its GPLing.
