xi2 License Dependency

[ukclivecox]

This project as xi2/xz as a dependency

nfpm/go.mod

Line 20 in a2ffae7

github.com/xi2/xz v0.0.0-20171230120015-48954b6210f8 // indirect

However, that project has not used a standard license:

https://github.com/xi2/xz/blob/master/LICENSE

This is causing us problems with 3rd party open source dependency license validation. Is there any possibility of forking that library to republish it with a standard license? I have added an issue to their project xi2/xz#10 but it seems inactive.

I also mentioned this on mholt/archiver#259 which also uses this project.

I don't think thats a very cool thing to do. Maybe you can ignore it in your tooling?

Anyway, sorry, but will not do this.
