End User License Agreements for Operating System

Software

Additional Information

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take

away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast,

the GNU General Public Licenses are intended to guar-

antee your freedom to share and change free software-

-to make sure the software is free for all its users.

This license, the Lesser General Public License, ap-

plies to some specially designated software packages-

-typically libraries-of the Free Software Foundation and

other authors who decide to use it. You can use it too,

but we suggest you first think carefully about whether

this license or the ordinary General Public License is

the better strategy to use in any particular case, based

on the explanations below.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to

freedom of use, not price. Our General Public Licenses

are designed to make sure that you have the freedom

to distribute copies of free software (and charge for

this service if you wish); that you receive source code

or can get it if you want it; that you can change the soft-

ware and use pieces of it in new free programs; and

that you are informed that you can do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions

that forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to

ask you to surrender these rights. These restrictions

translate to certain responsibilities for you if you dis-

tribute copies of the library or if you modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of the library,

whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients

all the rights that we gave you. You must make sure

that they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you

link other code with the library, you must provide com-

plete object files to the recipients, so that they can

relink them with the library after making changes to the

library and recompiling it. And you must show them

these terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1)

we copyright the library, and (2) we offer you this li-

cense, which gives you legal permission to copy, dis-

tribute and/or modify the library.

To protect each distributor, we want to make it very

clear that there is no warranty for the free library. Also,

if the library is modified by someone else and passed

on, the recipients should know that what they have is

not the original version, so that the original author's

reputation will not be affected by problems that might

be introduced by others.

Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to

the existence of any free program. We wish to make

sure that a company cannot effectively restrict the us-

ers of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license

from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that any

patent license obtained for a version of the library must

be consistent with the full freedom of use specified in

this license.

Most GNU software, including some libraries, is cov-

ered by the ordinary GNU General Public License. This

license, the GNU Lesser General Public License, ap-

plies to certain designated libraries, and is quite differ-

ent from the ordinary General Public License. We use

this license for certain libraries in order to permit link-

ing those libraries into non-free programs.

When a program is linked with a library, whether

statically or using a shared library, the combination of

the two is legally speaking a combined work, a deriva-

tive of the original library. The ordinary General Public

License therefore permits such linking only if the entire

combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser

General Public License permits more lax criteria for

linking other code with the library.

We call this license the "Lesser" General Public Li-

cense because it does Less to protect the user's free-

dom than the ordinary General Public License. It also

provides other free software developers Less of an ad-

vantage over competing nonfree programs. These dis-

advantages are the reason we use the ordinary General

Public License for many libraries. However, the Lesser

license provides advantages in certain special circum-

stances.

For example, on rare occasions, there may be a spe-

cial need to encourage the widest possible use of a cer-

tain 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 li-

brary does the same job as widely used non-free librar-

ies. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the free

library to free software only, so we use the Lesser Gen-

eral Public License.

In other cases, permission to use a particular library

in non-free programs enables a greater number of peo-

ple to use a large body of free software. For example,

permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free pro-

grams enables many more people to use the whole

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE Version 2.1, February 1999

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts as the successor of the GNU Library Public Li-

cense, version 2, hence the version number 2.1.]
