> GStreamer is LGPL and allow proprietary plug-ins. But tracker is GPL. So if a tracker use GStreamer to extract meta data for some file format but a proprietary GStreamer plug-in is involved, this is not allowed, right? > > Thanks > Amanda > _______________________________________________ > tracker-list mailing list > tracker-list@gnome.org > http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/tracker-list > Hi Amanda, the fact that GStreamer is LGPL means that you can link it against proprietary code. The plugin loading is a different mechanism (it is done at runtime, not compile time). Tracker being GPL means that if you change Tracker's source code, you have to make your modifications available. But all Tracker libraries are LGPL, meaning you can use them from proprietary code.
