Re: [Trisquel-users] Is EDuke32 fully free/libre
Kek, you can only distribute through the internet (so vague, FTP? WWW? Torrents?)!
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is EDuke32 fully free/libre
It's because while the Duke Nukem 3-D source code is under the GPL, the BUILD Engine is under a proprietary license. It's the same sort of situation as a game under the GPL that uses Unity3d.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is EDuke32 fully free/libre
But if the engine is proprietary, how can a game made with that engine be GPL?
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is EDuke32 fully free/libre
I don't see any evidence that this has been done for Duke Nukem 3-D, but the way you would normally do it is add a special exception permitting linking to the proprietary library.
