The /usr/share/ada/adainclude/*.gpr files are not from AdaCore, they are from me. I tried to use the same license as the software I packaged but I may have made a mistake. As you correctly point out, you do not link your program with the .gpr files, so this has no consequence on NARVAL. Note also that both AWS and XML/Ada are under "GPL version 2 or later", not just GPL v2, therefore (I think) you can license NARVAL under GPL v3 if you want. -- Ludovic Brenta. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
