You should definitely talk to your own lawyer but in general, the license
applies to distribution, not to your own use.

[users@httpd] Question about linking third-party GPL plugin to httpd

2018-10-29 Thread Remus Clearwater
Hi,
I downloaded the sources of a third-party plugin A and the httpd
separately. The license of plugin A is GPL, and httpd is Apache License
2.0. There is also a plugin B developed by our own company and is closed
source. So, does there would be some problems when I compile and link them
three together to provide web service for our users through the
internet? (Since
GPL is infectious, will plugin B and httpd be infected in this case?)

Thank you very much for your time :-)

All the best
