This meets DFSG criteria so it can be distributed by debian. IMHO it<br>
can be linked compiled by GPLv2 software..... not a lawyer though.<br>
<br>
DFSG criteria can be found here:<br>
<a href="http://www.debian.org/social_contract#guidelines" target="_blank">http://www.debian.org/social_contract#guidelines</a><br></blockquote></div>Does it meet those criteria, though?<br><ol><li><p><strong>Free Redistribution</strong></p>
<p>The license of a Debian component may not restrict any
party from selling or giving away the software as a
component of an aggregate software distribution containing
programs from several different sources. The license may not
