GNU Library general public license,

version 2

GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 59 Temple

Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
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 library GPL. It is numbered

2 because it goes with version 2 of the ordinary GPL.]

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 guarantee your freedom to share

and change free software--to make sure the software is free for

all its users.
This license, the Library General Public License, applies to some

specially designated Free Software Foundation software, and to

any other libraries whose authors decide to use it. You can use it

for your libraries, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, 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 software or use

pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do

these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid

anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the

rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you

if you distribute 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 a program with the library, you must

provide complete 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.
Our method of protecting your rights has two steps: (1) copyright

the library, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal

permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
Also, for each distributor’s protection, we want to make certain that

everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free library.

If the library is modified by someone else and passed on, we

want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original

version, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect

on the original authors’ reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software

patents. We wish to avoid the danger that companies distributing

free software will individually obtain patent licenses, thus in effect

transforming the program into proprietary software. To prevent

this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for

everyone’s free use or not licensed at all.
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the

ordinary GNU General Public License, which was designed for

utility programs. This license, the GNU Library General Public

License, applies to certain designated libraries. This license is

quite different from the ordinary one; be sure to read it in full, and

don’t assume that anything in it is the same as in the ordinary

license.
The reason we have a separate public license for some libraries is

that they blur the distinction we usually make between modifying

or adding to a program and simply using it. Linking a program

with a library, without changing the library, is in some sense simply

using the library, and is analogous to running a utility program or

application program. However, in a textual and legal sense, the

linked executable is a combined work, a derivative of the original

library, and the ordinary General Public License treats it as such.
Because of this blurred distinction, using the ordinary General

Public License for libraries did not effectively promote software

sharing, because most developers did not use the libraries. We

concluded that weaker conditions might promote sharing better.
However, unrestricted linking of non-free programs would deprive

the users of those programs of all benefit from the free status

of the libraries themselves. This Library General Public License

is intended to permit developers of non-free programs to use

free libraries, while preserving your freedom as a user of such

programs to change the free libraries that are incorporated in

them. (We have not seen how to achieve this as regards changes

in header files, but we have achieved it as regards changes in the

actual functions of the Library.) The hope is that this will lead to

faster development of free libraries.
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, while the latter

only works together with the library.
Note that it is possible for a library to be covered by the ordinary

General Public License rather than by this special one.

GNU LIBRARY GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS AND

CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library

which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other

authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of

this Library 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 derivative work under

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.
