The combined work would have to be licensed under GPL according to: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#AllCompatibility https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#IfLibraryIsGPL I think that it means that the code has to be relicensed to GPL (which LGPL 2.1 allows). I'm not sure about it either. That's why I'm asking. > libcryptsetup dep is optional anyway, and only used by the systemd-cryptsetup > helper, not PID 1 itself. I'm asking about license issues with this specific option enabled. Also, I don't think it matters which binary it is as long as it's included in a final product. > Unless you link your own more restrictive code into systemd-cryptsetup the GPL > dep that is libcryptsetup should not affect you in any way.

Dynamic linking is (in terms of GPL).
