Python GPL-3+ program w/o OpenSSL exception using python-requests
Hi,
sorry, if this question has been discussed before.
So far, I could not find a conclusive answer.
Please Cc me.
Python program or library "X" is licensed under GPL3+ without
OpenSSL exception. "X" does use the python-requests library,
which on load dynamically links the Python interpreter with the
OpenSSL library. This is "X":
"""
#!/usr/bin/python3
__license__ = "GPL-3+ w/o OpenSSL exception"
import os
import subprocess
import requests
if __name__ == "__main__":
lsof = subprocess.Popen(["lsof", "-p", str(os.getpid())],
stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
out, _ = lsof.communicate()
for s in out.decode().split("\n"):
if "/libssl.so." in s:
print(s)
"""
As one can see, the process "X" links the OpenSSL library.
Can "X" be distributed legally by Debian?
TIA & Cheers
Btw.: "X" could also be the python-pypump library.
