The GPL anticipated this sort of thing which is why it required not just the source code to be released but all the build scripts and ancillary documentation required to actually use the source code. If they didn't incorporate anyone else's GPL code then they aren't in breach but its still a bait and switch.
- plam503711 9y agoIt's using massively GPLv2 code from everywhere (plus XAPI and Xen are Linux foundation projects!). GPL compliance requires you to provide build scripts.
- slededit 9y agoWe just need one of the copyright holders to force the issue then.
- plam503711 9y agoI wouldn't go this way, personally (David vs Goliath). At least, not after exploring almost all other options.
