GPL concerns halt Kororaa live CD (NewsForge)GPL concerns halt Kororaa live CD (NewsForge)Posted May 17, 2006 2:50 UTC (Wed) by jayorke (guest, #10685)In reply to: GPL concerns halt Kororaa live CD (NewsForge) by arjan Parent article: GPL concerns halt Kororaa live CD (NewsForge)
If glue is GPL'd and blob is binary and compiling glue doesn't require the code to blob then is there a violation of the code. The idea that a CD is a greater work in the eyes of the GPL an non-GPL code on the CD is a violation is equally scary. Would a computer sold with GPL software on it also be a greater work because it is all in the same package? Don't expect to see Linux sold on many PCs if zealots can't find a balance of protecting GPL code freedom and allowing non-GPL components to co-exist.
