      Zabbix 7.0 will switch to the AGPL-3.0 license.

      As a maintainer of the Zabbix package for Alpine Linux, we need to patch Zabbix to get it to build.

      One of the stipulations of the (A)GPL license is that becomes especially relevant is section 5 ( Conveying Modified Source Versions). How does Zabbix SIA expect distributors of the software to be able to comply with these stipulations (especially 5A and 5B).

      End-users of the Zabbix web-interface should be made aware of modifications and where they can download the modified source. Are there standard provisions to convey such a notification or is everyone expected to devise something on their own?
