[patch] Make MPIx, PRRTE and MPL more portable for non-GNU #12815
Comments
Need to ponder this a bit more, but I don't believe we can accept those changes. If we copy code from GNU, that code is GPL'd and will therefore cause us to become GPL - which is something we are unwilling to do. |
Hi,
The c library is LGPL, not GPL.

Still, merits some careful consideration. We generally steer a very wide berth around GPL of any type. Might be a different approach required that doesn't in any way come near any GPL variation. |
