Hi. I am packaging a new library (cgraph) and searching the README file I found this:
-*- The Cgraph Library source code, examples, and documentation are in the public domain. Utilities included in the utils* directories are not ours, and under the distribution terms specified therein. -*- Can I put this library in main, since it it under public domain? The utilities that the file refers, are to NeXT, so they are not going in the binary distribution of the package, but what about the source? Should I remove them from the source file as well? In case not, this is an extract of the README from the utils: -*- Distribution: open must only be distributed free of charges. (for other ways of distribution you have to get my written consent) You are only allowed to distribute unmodified copies of this software. You may distribute modified copies if you unmistakably mark them as such. You are only allowed to distribute this software in a bundle (compressed tar archive or any other archiving/compressing method with similar purpose) including all files that are part of this software package (open.m open.h open.1 open.info appopen.1 Makefile Makefile.postamble Makefile.preamble PB.project) -*- I don't think they can go in main, but in my opinion they go to /dev/null, because they are not needed. I intent to make available ASAP an unofficial .deb package, but in the meanwhile you can check it out on http://totoro.berkeley.edu/software/A_Cgraph.html -- Pedro Guerreiro (aka digito) ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -------------------------------------------------------- Diplomacy: the art of letting someone have your own way.
