- saghm 5y agoI'm super interested in trying out mold, but I was a bit taken about seeing that it's AGPL licensed; I have no idea what the implications of that license for a linker would be. Would using it to link into a final binary require sharing the source of the binary when its distributed? What about if its used to link statically into a library, and then that library is linked into another binary?
- moonchild 5y agoNo more than would using a GPL-licensed linker, such as gnu ld or gold.
- rkangel 5y agoYou're running the tool not embedding or linking against its source code. An equivalent example might be if Libreoffice was under the GPL licence[1] - that licence wouldn't have any implications for a spreadsheet you created using it. [1] It's not - it's MPL
