Some parts of GIMP's source code are covered by the LGPL; GIMP also depends on some 3rd party components which have different licenses, but AFAIK, they're all compatible with GPL. > Secondly, if there are some parts of the source code covered by a > different license, does an end-user, according to you, agree to > those extra licenses as well? or, according to you, does the end > user only receive the entire source code (including the different > license parts) licensed under the terms of the GPLv3? User doesn't have to agree to any of GIMP's licenses in order to use it - GPL–compatible licenses only govern redistribution, not usage (they're not EULAs). -- < Jernej Simončič ><><><><>< https://eternallybored.org/ > When eating an elephant, take one bite at a time. -- Abrams's Advice _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
