These packages were originally debianized by Fabrizio Polacco on Feb 2000. They were later completely redone by Ben Collins on March of 2001. The original source, by Sleepycat Software Inc., was downloaded from Sleepycat's web site (http://www.sleepycat.com/). The upstream Changelog information was directly downloaded from http://www.sleepycat.com/update/index.html and converted to a text format. Bug fixes, answers to Frequently Asked Questions and updated versions of this software are available. For more information see: http://www.sleepycat.com/ To ask questions about DB, report DB problems, request notification of future releases and/or bug fixes, request support contract and licensing information, or to contact the authors for any reason, please send email to: db@sleepycat.com (please submit bugreports about this package through the Debian Bug Tracking System, using the "reportbug" utility, or directly by mailing a message starting with: Package: libdb2 Version: 2.7.7 (you can get this information by running dpkg -s libdb2 ) Copyright information. Attached below you'll find the copyright notice and license found in the sources tree. About it, Sleepycat Software Inc. says: Complete source code for Berkeley DB is provided as part of the package, and DB may be freely redistributed and used under most non-commercial conditions. This license is different from the one used for the DB 1.85 release. The major difference is that the license for DB 2.0 requires that, if the DB software is to be redistributed, the software using DB 2.0 must also be freely redistributed. Therefore you can't redistribute the db2 libraries as part of a program for which the source is not freely redistributable, using the present license. The reason is that we want it to be clear that you can freely use DB internally without having to redistribute your sources. The only folks we ask to commercially license DB are people that are redistributing DB and not redistributing their source. ============================================================================== /*- * @(#)LICENSE 10.10 (Sleepycat) 1/12/99 */ The following are the copyrights and redistribution conditions that apply to this copy of the Berkeley DB software.
