We would destribute our program executable that contains some portions of scrt0.o, libc.a and libgcc.a in FreeBSD. The executable is linked with those object or archive files in /usr/lib by GCC. The GCC is containing in FreeBSD. I understand that scrt.o and libc.a covered under BSD licence and not by the LGPL. I am not sure of the genesis of libgcc, though. I have question, Can we distribute the linked executable as such ? Is there no restrictions on that ? Is the executable covered under LGPL or GPL ? Please give me your opinion. -- Katsuhiko Imahara Tug System Corporation Osaka, Japan TEL:06-949-3177 FAX:06-949-3179 E-mail:tug@internetway.or.jp ------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
