19 What follows is information from the authors of the code:
22 Bacula may be linked with any libraries permitted under the GPL.
23 However, if configured with encryption Bacula does use the
24 OpenSSL libraries which are, unfortunately, not compatible with
25 GPL v2. To the best of our knowledge these libraries are not
26 distributed with Bacula code because they are shared objects, and
27 as such there is no conflict with the GPL according what I (Kern)
28 understand in talking to FSFE, and in any case, for the code that
29 I have written, I have no problems linking in OpenSSL (of course
30 this does not speak for the few files in Bacula that are
31 copyrighted by others). If you take a more severe stance on this
32 issue, and you are going to distribute Bacula, then simply do not
33 use the --with-openssl when building your package, and no use of
34 OpenSSL even through dynamic linking will be included.
38 Recipient understands that although each Contributor grants the
39 licenses to its Contributions set forth herein, no assurances are
40 provided by any Contributor that the Program does not infringe
41 the patent or other intellectual property rights of any other
42 entity. Each Contributor disclaims any liability to Recipient
43 for claims brought by any other entity based on infringement of
44 intellectual property rights or otherwise. As a condition to
45 exercising the rights and licenses granted hereunder, each
46 Recipient hereby assumes sole responsibility to secure any other
47 intellectual property rights needed, if any. For example, if a
48 third party patent license is required to allow Recipient to
49 distribute the Program, it is Recipient's responsibility to
50 acquire that license before distributing the Program.

196 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
199 Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
200 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA
201 Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
202 of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
206 The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
207 freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
208 License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
209 software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
210 General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
211 Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
212 using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
213 the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
216 When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
217 price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
218 have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
219 this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
220 if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
221 in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
223 To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
224 anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
225 These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
226 distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
228 For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
229 gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
230 you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
231 source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
234 We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
235 (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
236 distribute and/or modify the software.
238 Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
239 that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
240 software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
241 want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
242 that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
243 authors' reputations.
245 Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
246 patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
247 program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
248 program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
249 patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
251 The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
254 GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
255 TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
257 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
258 a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
259 under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
260 refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
261 means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
262 that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
263 either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
264 language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
265 the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
267 Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
268 covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
269 running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
270 is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
271 Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
272 Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
274 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
275 source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
276 conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
277 copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
278 notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
279 and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
280 along with the Program.
282 You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
283 you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
285 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
286 of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
287 distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
288 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
290 a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
291 stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
293 b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
294 whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
295 part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
296 parties under the terms of this License.
298 c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
299 when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
300 interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
301 announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
302 notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
303 a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
304 these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
305 License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
306 does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
307 the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
309 These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
310 identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
311 and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
312 themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
313 sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
314 distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
315 on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
316 this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
317 entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
319 Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
320 your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
321 exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
322 collective works based on the Program.
324 In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
325 with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
326 a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
327 the scope of this License.
329 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
330 under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
331 Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
333 a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
334 source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
335 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
337 b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
338 years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
339 cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
340 machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
341 distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
342 customarily used for software interchange; or,
344 c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
345 to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
346 allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
347 received the program in object code or executable form with such
348 an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
350 The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
351 making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
352 code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
353 associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
354 control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
355 special exception, the source code distributed need not include
356 anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
357 form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
358 operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
359 itself accompanies the executable.
361 If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
362 access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
363 access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
364 distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
365 compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
367 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
368 except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
369 otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
370 void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
371 However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
372 this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
373 parties remain in full compliance.
375 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
376 signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
377 distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
378 prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
379 modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
380 Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
381 all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
382 the Program or works based on it.
384 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
385 Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
386 original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
387 these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
388 restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
389 You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
392 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
393 infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
394 conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
395 otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
396 excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
397 distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
398 License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
399 may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
400 license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
401 all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
402 the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
403 refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
405 If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
406 any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
407 apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
410 It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
411 patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
412 such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
413 integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
414 implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
415 generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
416 through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
417 system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
418 to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
421 This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
422 be a consequence of the rest of this License.
424 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
425 certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
426 original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
427 may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
428 those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
429 countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
430 the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
432 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
433 of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
434 be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
435 address new problems or concerns.
437 Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
438 specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
439 later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
440 either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
441 Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
442 this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
445 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
446 programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
447 to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
448 Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
449 make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
450 of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
451 of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
455 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
456 FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
457 OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
458 PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
459 OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
460 MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
461 TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
462 PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
463 REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
465 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
466 WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
467 REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
468 INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
469 OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
470 TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
471 YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
472 PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
473 POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
475 END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
477 How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
479 If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
480 possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
481 free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
483 To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
484 to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
485 convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
486 the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
488 <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
489 Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
491 This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
492 it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
493 the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
494 (at your option) any later version.
496 This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
497 but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
498 MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
499 GNU General Public License for more details.
501 You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
502 along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
503 Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA
506 Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
508 If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
509 when it starts in an interactive mode:
511 Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
512 Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
513 This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
514 under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
516 The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
517 parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may
518 be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
519 mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
521 You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
522 school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
523 necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
525 Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
526 `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

531 This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
532 proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
533 consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
534 library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
535 Public License instead of this License.
