I have installed VisualStudio 2013 Community, as per Microsoft documentation VisualStudio 2013 Community is free and will not require any license.
But today I saw a notification on VisualStudio 2013 community IDE prompting me to update the trial license. Is this a bug?

Select File > Account Settings to open the Account Settings dialog, and then choose the License with a Product Key link.
In the developer command prompt type set SERVICEHUBTRACELEVEL=verbose and press enter. In the developer command prompt type devenv and press enter. In the VS instance that starts, sign in and click "Check for an updated license"
No, Community edition is free to use for many scenarios. Learn more about Visual Studio Community.. In case your Community edition installation prompts you for a license, you might have to sign in to unlock the IDE. Follow these instructions to sign into Visual Studio.
Navigate to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > Check SSIS PowerPack entry. If you see the (Trial) word in the name then you have the trial version installed. Here is the direct link for latest build: Only full version allows you to activate a license key you purchased.
Have you signed in to Community? Mean in your editor aswell on the homepage if necessary.
That should update the license and fix that. If you need to sign out after that you can. The license should be good for one year before you need to sign in again.
Otherwise it's a problem that you should address to the Microsoft VS Support not the SO Community
