Resolving symbolic links (by a linker program) to something less expressive (but more effecient) doesn't create a modified/derivative work
You say "modified/derivative" as if the two words are synonyms, but they are not. A copy of library altered by a linker is "modified" and is not "verbatim" nor is it a copy of the "source". The technical meaning of "derivative" in copyright law is not the same as "modified". A book with a page ripped out is "modified" but not "derivative". _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
