I don't get why you keep suggesting that the GPL is incompatible with the appp store but the LGPL isn't.
Also, what limits the usage rights is the app store, NOT the GPL.
- jbk 13y ago>Also, what limits the usage rights is the app store, NOT the GPL. Exactly, but it is forbidden to limit the rights when redistributing (section 6) that are granted (running, copying, distribution and modification, section 0). Therefore redistribution of GPL app is forbidden on the AppStore. LGPL does not have those dispositions.
- jordigh 13y agoAll versions of both the LGPL and the GPL forbid imposing further restrictions other than each of their respective terms. If you think the app store has a problem with the GPL, then the app store also has a problem with the LGPL.
