Anyway, here a summary of the licenses of the libraries linked to the GTK+ version of Emacs. All GPL-like licenses had the "or later version" clause. Most modified MIT X11 licenses, just have a notice similar to the following added: Except as contained in this notice, the name(s) of the above copyright holders shall not be used in advertising or otherwise to promote the sale, use or other dealings in this Software without prior written authorization. I attached the small script, I used, to check the licenses quickly of the libraries on a Debian-based system. -- Alexandre libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 => GPLv2 libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0 => GPLv2 libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0 => GPLv2 libm.so.6 => LGPLv2.1 libm.so.6 => LGPLv2.1 libfontconfig.so.1 => Modified MIT X11 libX11.so.6 => MIT X11 libgobject-2.0.so.0 => LGPL lib-2.0.so.0 => LGPLv2 lib-2.0.so.0 => LGPLv2 lib-2.0.so.0 => LGPLv2 lib-2.0.so.0 => LGPL libpthread.so.0 => LGPLv2.1 libpthread.so.0 => LGPLv2.1 libSM.so.6 => Modified MIT X11 libICE.so.6 => Modified MIT X11 libtiff.so.4 => Modified MIT X11 libjpeg.so.62 => Modified MIT X11 libpng12.so.0 => Modified MIT X11 libungif.so.4 => MIT X11 libXpm.so.4 => Modified MIT X11 libXft.so.2 => Modified MIT X11 libasound.so.2 => LGPLv2.1 libncurses.so.5 => Modified MIT X11 libc.so.6 => LGPLv2.1 libc.so.6 => LGPLv2.1 libfreetype.so.6 => Dual GPLv2 + FreeType libpangocairo-1.0.so.0 => GPLv2 libpango-1.0.so.0 => GPLv2 libXfixes.so.3 => Modified MIT X11 libatk-1.0.so.0 => GPLv2 libgmodule-2.0.so.0 => LGPLv2 libdl.so.2 => LGPLv2.1 libdl.so.2 => LGPLv2.1 libcairo.so.2 => Modified MIT X11 libXext.so.6 => Modified MIT X11 libXrender.so.1 => Modified MIT X11 libXinerama.so.1 => Modified MIT X11 libXi.so.6 => Modified MIT X11 libXrandr.so.2 => Modified MIT X11 libXcursor.so.1 => Modified MIT X11 libz.so.1 => zlib libexpat.so.1 => Modified MIT X11 libXau.so.6 => Modified MIT X11 libXdmcp.so.6 => Modified MIT X11 libpangoft2-1.0.so.0 => LGPLv2 ------=_Part_40500_3246431.1183064492842 Content-Type: application/x-sh; name=check-licenses.sh Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 X-Attachment-Id: f_f3hpv3sw Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="check-licenses.sh" IyEvYmluL3NoCgp1c2FnZSgpIHsKICAgIGVjaG8gImNoZWNrLWxpY2VuY2UgPGV4ZWN1dGFibGU+ IDxmaWxlPiIKICAgIGV4aXQgMQp9CgppZiBbICQjIC1sdCAyIF07IHRoZW4KICAgIHVzYWdlCmZp Cgpmb3IgbGliIGluIGBsZGQgJDEgfCBncmVwICJsaWJbXi9dIiB8IFwKICAgIHNlZCAncy8uKlwo bGliLipcKSA9Pi4qL1wxLydgOyBkbwogICAgZm9yIHBrZyBpbiBgZHBrZyAtUyAkbGliIHwgc2Vk ICdzL1woLipcKTouKi9cMS8nIHwgdW5pcWA7IGRvCiAgICAgICAgZWNobyAtbiAiJGxpYiA9PiAi ID4+ICQyCiAgICAgICAgbGVzcyAvdXNyL3NoYXJlL2RvYy8kcGtnL2NvcHlyaWdodAogICAgICAg IGVjaG8gLW4gImxpY2Vuc2U6ICIKICAgICAgICBweXRob24gLWMgJ3ByaW50IHJhd19pbnB1dCgp JyA+PiAkMgogICAgZG9uZQpkb25lCg== ------=_Part_40500_3246431.1183064492842 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel ------=_Part_40500_3246431.1183064492842--
