Description
Currently software such as vault is not built by ofborg, and I don't really understand why.
bsl11 may not be open source, but it is source-available and redistributable = true;.
I could see an ideological argument here, but I don't think that should an excuse for being unhelpful to Nixpkgs maintainers.
So I'd like to ask, is this limitation intentional?
