> According to > [https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html]: > "Copyright (C) year1, year2, year3 copyright-holder" > > Notice the capital C, I had a lowercase c. Done. This letter is optional, so its form (uppercase or lowercase or the Unicode copyright symbol) shouldn't really matter. > I checked every file to see which year I updated them, and added those year > numbers. Done Thank you! > And for the copyright-holder, the gnu link says "you should know who is the > copyright holder for your package.". So it must be me, and Nicolas Dato is my > name. If "Dato" is confusing, Dato is my real surname. No, this isn't confusing. > I didn't copy source code from anywhere. First, to avoid misinterpretations: when we are speaking about copyright notices in your tarball, it doesn't matter if they are 'source code' or 'documentation' or 'supporting files' or anything else. All copyrightable files should have valid notices. For example, you did copy INSTALL from somewhere, didn't you? > However, I think valgrind works by linking the program to valgrind's own > libraries. It depends on how understand 'linking'; what matters for the GPL is whether the program makes a combined work with valgrind. And it doesn't, like it doesn't make a combined work with a debugger or with the kernel of the operating system. It's more like [//www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#IfInterpreterIsGPL running the program in an interpreter]. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/task/?16666> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
