Re: GTK3+ Question regarding LPGL



Are you sure you link statically? 

pkg-config --libs gtk+-3.0 

Should be dynamic. What build system do you use?

Dear Team,
 
We are currently making an application with the Gtk3+ system to
create configuration software for our Ubuntu based system – a
commercial system.
We have seen that you wrote that the software is LGPL and we
evaluated the pkg-config used, finding out, that it links static, as
we read everything, the LGPL states that in case we link static, we
have to provide all source to the recipients – possibly, which rather
a “small” problem, as the code also includes confidential routines
and information.
 
So my questions is, is there a useful whitepaper how to link
dynamically, which also might not be a bad idea, or, whether you
allow us to link static for the project – how is your standard
procedure for that?
 
It would be great to hear from you. You might enjoy what we have
created with your product as well – optically and from the point of
view of function…
