------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-04-09 19:12 ------- > We are preparing an extension for the GPL is not "We have an extension for the GPL". Notice that mdk 9.1 already have this problem. > We are still hashing out the exact details internally Nothing explicit related to php license. I am confidente that MySQL AB will solve this issues. But it's not time to distribute php-mysql with libmysqlclient v4. My first intent to open this bug is to inform Mandrake about this issue. The rest is up to you. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: RESOLVED creation_date: description: php-mysql is linked to libmysqlclient. But libmysqlclient is not longer LGPL. The license of libmysqlclient V4 is now GPL (check the sources in libmysql and libmysql_r directory). PHP license is incompatible with GPL : http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html ---------------------------- The PHP License, Version 3.0. This license is used by most of PHP4. It is a non-copyleft free software license which is incompatible with the GNU GPL. We recommend that you not use this license for anything except PHP add-ons. The Zend License, Version 2.0. This license is used by one part of PHP4. It is a non-copyleft free software license which is incompatible with the GNU GPL, and has practical problems like those of the original BSD license. We recommend that you not use this license for anything you write. ---------------------------- This new conflit also applies to apache_mod_mysql.
