Hi! I package plplot rpms for openSUSE. I am a little confused about the licence header mentioned in the file plplot/plplot-5.9.7/bindings/tk/about.tcl that says ------------------------------------ The PLPLOT package is freely distributable, but NOT in the public domain. The PLPLOT source code, except header files and those files explicitly granting permission, may not be used in a commercial software package without consent of the authors. You are allowed and encouraged to include the PLPLOT object library and header files in a commercial package provided that: (1) it is explicitly and prominently stated that the PLPLOT library is freely available, and (2) the full copyrights on the PLPLOT package ------------------------------------
Is this statement not in conflict with PLplot's otherwise LGPL licence? Is this simply a remnant of an old licence, and needs to cleared out? I would be grateful for any comments regarding this.
