As far as I understand it, the problem occurs when distributing binaries of software Foo and software Bar, where Foo is a GPL-licensed dependency of Bar, and Bar's license conflicts with (read: is more restrictive than) the GPL. The license of Foo prohibits binary distribution in this case. Apple's aversion to GPLv3 is a separate issue. They probably don't want their own code to catch GPLv3 from swapping bodily fluids. vq _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
