Depends on what one thinks is a problem and what not, but FWIW I definitely consider it a problem. Due to GPL's viral nature, I'm fairly certain that the end result of linking something licensed using the above is a combined work which is either GPL'd, or a violation of the GPL or the original (MIT, BSD etc) license. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
