AFAIK a library that uses LGPL3 modules without any modification is allowed to be licensed differently, provided that the final product allows the LGPL3 modules to be recompiled and/or swapped for others and that the source for the LGPL3 modules is provided.
- asicsp 6y agoThanks. I'm still confused though. If I create an application using Guietta, do I have to follow MIT or LGPL3 terms?
- phoe-krk 6y agoYou can follow whatever terms you desire for your application as long as you fulfill the requirements of the licenses of all modules that you use. In case of MIT, it is attribution; in case of LGPL3, you need to make the source of the LGPL3 module available and you need to make it possible for the user to swap the compiled module you ship for their own version of that module.
- alfiopuglisi 6y agoThanks for the heads up. I confess that I did not look deeply into library licenses while setting up the project. I will add a note about PySide2 being LGPL in the readme.
