New issue 3145: PyPy and the GPL https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/issues/3145/pypy-and-the-gpl
Tim Rojek: Our team has a python application we distribute and are considering switching it to PyPy. So far so good, everything works and its faster! Legal is concerned about the use of GPL code in PyPy from the gdbm module. Julia had the same problem and introduced a USE\_GPL\_LIBS build option, perhaps something similar with PyPy can be done? Are gdbm.py and \_gdbm\_build.py the only GPL files in the prebuilt binary packages from [pypy.org](http://pypy.org)? If that’s all, I expect we could just delete those files. Build options are always good though! _______________________________________________ pypy-issue mailing list pypy-issue@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-issue
