The original version of GLEW contains files under 4 licenses:
|
|
BSD
|
|
GPLv2+
|
|
SGI Free Software License B
|
|
GLX Public License
|
|
|
|
The last 2 licenses are not Free software licenses and thus not acceptable for
|
|
Fedora. The version shipped by Fedora has the encumbered files removed and
|
|
replaced by files from Mesa. These replacement files are licensed under the
|
|
MIT license, which is BSD and GPL compatible.
|
|
|
|
Also note that the GPL licensed files are scripts which generate parts of the
|
|
C-code in GLEW, these scripts itself are only part of the GLEW sources shipped
|
|
by Fedora, not of the binary rpm. Thus the binary package is licensed under the
|
|
BSD license, and only under the BSD license. This is important for other
|
|
packages which use the GLEW library.
