Re: LGPL question

["Donny Viszneki" <donny viszneki gmail com>]

This is not a comprehensive explanation, but in a nutshell:

Were you to be linking against a library that is distributed under the
terms of the GNU GPL, you would be required to make your source code
available.

Under the terms of the GNU LGPL, however, you are not required to do
such a thing, so long as you offer dynamically-linked builds of your
software (well, the linkage to the LGPL-licensed components must be
dynamically linked.) Were you, however, to modify the LGPL-licensed
library itself, and then distribute that, you would be required to
make those changes available.
