cernlib-base 20061220+dfsg3-4.1 / usr / share / doc / cernlib-base / copyright

This package was debianized by Kevin B. McCarty <kmccarty@debian.org> and 
Lifeng Sun <lifongsun@gmail.com>.  It was downloaded from the URL
http://cernlib.web.cern.ch/cernlib/download/2006_source/tar/2006_src.tar.gz

The very large file 2006_src.tar.gz was split up into individual modules,
from which non-free files were removed, of which the relevant ones have been
recompressed in the "upstream" directory of the cernlib source package.  See
the file debian/README.Debian-source in the source package for a detailed
description of this process.


COPYRIGHT
---------

CERNLIB is copyright (C) CERN and others.  As of this writing (9 January 2008),
the web page http://wwwasd.web.cern.ch/wwwasd/cernlib/conditions.html (which
gives the terms under which CERNLIB may be used) states:

  CERNLIB Availability

  (C) Copyright CERN except where explicitly stated otherwise. Permission to
  use and/or redistribute this work is granted under the terms of the GNU
  General Public License. FLUKA routines included in GEANT3 are joint copyright
  of INFN and CERN and are not licensed under the GPL: permission to use and/or
  redistribute outside GEANT3 should be negotiated. The software and
  documentation made available under the terms of this license are provided
  with no warranty.

  Last modified: 18-March-2004

The aforementioned FLUKA routines have been excised from the CERNLIB source
code and binary packages distributed by Debian.

There is some ambiguity as to whether CERN intended to have CERNLIB available
specifically under GPL version 2 (the current version at the time the above-
mentioned web page was written) or always under the current version.  (The text
"GNU General Public License" in the web page quoted above is a hyperlink to
http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html which, as of this writing, references GPL
version 3.)  I have requested clarification from the upstream maintainer.  In
the meantime, it should be noted that the orig.tar.gz files for CERNLIB in
Debian were obtained from the upstream web site prior to the release of GPL
version 3.  It therefore seems to me to be safe to assume that re-distribution
of CERNLIB from the Debian source packages is permissible under the terms
either of GPL version 2 or of the current GPL version, at the re-distributor's
option.

On Debian systems, the complete text of the current version of the GNU General
Public License can be found in the file `/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-3'.
The text of version 2 can be found at `/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2'.


EXCEPTIONS
----------

Some source files of CERNLIB are provided (in parts, or in entirety) under
different licenses which are compatible with the GPL.  See the table and
licenses below for details.  (File paths are relative to the directory
cernlib-$VERSION/src/ after running "debian/rules unpack".)  Most of the
differences in the licenses below are only in the exact wordings.  The
"Package(s)" column lists the binary Debian packages in which each piece of
code is compiled or otherwise included.

Copyright codes are as follows:

LGPL	- Library GPL
BSD	- BSD style license
NO AD	- BSD style license with negative advertising clause

Package codes are as follows:

Dev   = most development packages
Kx    = kxterm
Graf  = libgrafx11-1-gfortran, libgrafx11-1-dev
Pack  = libpacklib1-gfortran, libpacklib1-dev
KuiM  = libpacklib-lesstif1-gfortran, libpacklib-lesstif1-dev
