EULA

certain library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs

must be allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free library does the

same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the

free library to free software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License. In other

cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs enables a greater number

of people to use a large body of free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C

Library in non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU operating

system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating system. Although the Lesser

General Public License is Less protective of the users’ freedom, it does ensure that the

user of a program that is linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to

run that program using a modified version of the Library. The precise terms and conditions

for copying, distribution and modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference

between a “work based on the library” and a “work that uses the library.” The former

contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must be combined with the

library in order to run.

Terms and Conditions for Copying, Distribution and Modification

0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program which contains

a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized party saying it may be

distributed under the terms of this Lesser General Public License (also called “this

License”). Each licensee is addressed as “You.”

A “library” means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so as to be

conveniently linked with application programs (which use some of those functions and

data) to form executables.

The “Library,” below, refers to any such software library or work which has been distributed

under these terms. A “work based on the Library” means either the Library or any deriv-

ative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a portion

of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated straightforwardly into another

language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term “modification.”)

“Source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications

to it. For a library, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it

contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control

compilation and installation of the library.

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this

License; they are outside its scope. The act of running a program using the Library is not

restricted, and output from such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a

work based on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for writing it).

Whether that is true depends on what the Library does and what the program that uses

the Library does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library’s complete source code as

you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish

on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all

the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and distribute

a copy of this License along with the Library.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your

option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, thus forming a

work based on the Library, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under

the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a) The modified work must itself be a software library; b) You must cause the files

modified to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of

any change; and c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge

to all third parties under the terms of this License; and d) If a facility in the modified

Library refers to a function or a table of data to be supplied by an application program

that uses the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility is invoked,

then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event an application does

not supply such function or table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part

of its purpose remains meaningful. (For example, a function in a library to compute

square roots has a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the application.

Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any application-supplied function or table used

by this function must be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square root

function must still compute square roots.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of

that work are not derived from the Library, and can be reasonably considered inde-

pendent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not

apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you

distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Library,

the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions

for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless

of who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written

entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative

or collective works based on the Library.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with the Library

(or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium

does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License instead of

this License to a given copy of the Library. To do this, you must alter all the notices that

refer to this License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,

instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU

General Public License has appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you

wish.) Do not make any other change in these notices.

Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy, so the ordinary

GNU General Public License applies to all subsequent copies and derivative works made

from that copy.

This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library into a program

that is not a library.

4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it, under Section 2)

in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided

that you accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code,

which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium

customarily used for software interchange.

If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated

place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place

satisfies the requirement to distribute the source code, even though third parties are

not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but is designed to

work with the Library by being compiled or linked with it, is called a “work that uses the

Library.” Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and therefore

falls outside the scope of this License.

However, linking a “work that uses the Library” with the Library creates an executable

that is a derivative of the Library (because it contains portions of the Library), rather

than a “work that uses the library.” The executable is therefore covered by this License.

Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.

When a “work that uses the Library” uses material from a header file that is part of the

Library, the object code for the work may be a derivative work of the Library even

though the source code is not. Whether this is true is especially significant if the work

can be linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The threshold for this

to be true is not precisely defined by law.

If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data structure layouts and accessors,

and small macros and small inline functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of

the object file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative work. (Executables

containing this object code plus portions of the Library will still fall under Section 6.)

Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute the object code

for the work under the terms of Section 6. Any executables containing that work also

fall under Section 6, whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.

6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link a “work that uses

the Library” with the Library to produce a work containing portions of the Library, and

distribute that work under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit modifi-

cation of the work for the customer's own use and reverse engineering for debugging

such modifications.

You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is used in it

and that the Library and its use are covered by this License. You must supply a copy of

this License. If the work during execution displays copyright notices, you must include

the copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference directing the

user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one of these things: a) Accompany

the work with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code for the

Library including whatever changes were used in the work (which must be distributed

under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked with the

Library, with the complete machine-readable “work that uses the Library,” as object

code and/or source code, so that the user can modify the Library and then relink to

produce a modified executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood that
