The following file has a proprietory licence header that clearly forbids the distribution of mathgl 2.0.3 as rpm packages or otherwise by a distribution (for example by openSUSE).

mathgl-2.0.3/src/s_hull/s_hull_pro.cpp (from line 18) states:

/ copyright 2012 Dr David Sinclair
david@s-hull.org
program to compute Delaunay triangulation of a set of points.
this code may not be published or distributed without the concent of the
copyright holder.

    There is copy (in text file src/s_hull/COPYING.txt) from e-mail of David Sinclair at 29 June 2012

    This is permission to use s-hull-pro mathgl as long as the routines retain
    my copyright notice. I an happy for it to be included in an LGPL product and
    I am happy for the source to be bundled with mathgl under whatever license you
    use for that.


    Is it enough or not?

    There is no response from bug creator for about 2 months. So, I think that my answer is OK, and bug can be closed.

    Sorry for the delay in my response. Thanks for your help, and I concur that the bundled COPYING.txt file statement is enough for the purpose.
