Hi, sorry, if this question has been discussed before. So far, I could not find a conclusive answer. Please Cc me.
Python program or library "X" is licensed under GPL3+ without OpenSSL exception. "X" does use the python-requests library, which on load dynamically links the Python interpreter with the OpenSSL library. This is "X": """ #!/usr/bin/python3 __license__ = "GPL-3+ w/o OpenSSL exception" import os import subprocess import requests if __name__ == "__main__": lsof = subprocess.Popen(["lsof", "-p", str(os.getpid())], stdout=subprocess.PIPE) out, _ = lsof.communicate() for s in out.decode().split("\n"): if "/libssl.so." in s: print(s) """ As one can see, the process "X" links the OpenSSL library. Can "X" be distributed legally by Debian? TIA & Cheers Btw.: "X" could also be the python-pypump library. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-legal-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
