The GPL requires all linked libraries to be "GPL compatile" (there's an exception for libs that ship as part of the OS, though). The clarification of wording however in the newer (L)GPL strictly speaking counts as "additional limitation" that's forbidden by GPL v2. Luckily Kdenlive's license contains the "or any later GPL version" clause which at least for Kdenlive should make it manageable. However, what about other apps that use MLT? Are they all (L)GPL v3 compatible? |
