I don't think that the combined work still violations LGPLv3, because section 4 of the LGPLv3 allows you to release the combined works under any license that you choose, provided that you do certain things, and the library itself can still be distributed under the LGPLv3. The exception allows the library to be distributed under the LGPLv3, so it should be fine AFAICT.

Agreed. (Actually, the OpenSSL people seem to think that OpenSSL should be considered a system library, as that's what they say in their FAQ. But it's definitely an issue that's not entirely clear.) -- Hubert Chathi - Email/Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA (Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net) Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
