License:
-For the most part, Bacula is licensed under the GPL version 2
-with the additions listed below. Most this code is listed
-under Copyright Free Software Foundation Europe e.V. What
-follows are the additions to the GPL version 2 license.
+For the most part, Bacula is licensed under the GPL version 2
+this code is listed under Copyright Free Software Foundation
+Europe e.V. A small part of the code (less than 10 files) is
+copyrighted under the GPL by FSF, or under BSD licenses by various
+authors (see below).

+What follows is information from the authors of the code:
Linking:
-Bacula may be linked with any libraries permitted under the GPL,
-or with any non-GPLed libraries, including OpenSSL, that are
-required for its proper functioning, providing the source code of
-those non-GPLed libraries is non-proprietary and freely
-available to the public.
+Bacula may be linked with any libraries permitted under the GPL.
+However, if configured with encryption Bacula does use the
+OpenSSL libraries which are, unfortunately, not compatible with
+GPL v2. To the best of our knowledge these libraries are not
+distributed with Bacula code because they are shared objects, and
+as such there is no conflict with the GPL according what I (Kern)
+understand in talking to FSFE, and in any case, for the code that
+I have written, I have no problems linking in OpenSSL (of course
+this does not speak for the few files in Bacula that are
+copyrighted by others). If you take a more severe stance on this
+issue, and you are going to distribute Bacula, then simply do not
+use the --with-openssl when building your package, and no use of
+OpenSSL even through dynamic linking will be included.
