Cryptlib is dual-licensed. Only the GPL-compatible license is used not the commercial one, which is independent from the license used for cryptlib in Fedora. _______________________________________________ legal mailing list [email protected] https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/[email protected]
