| Description: | Freely re-usable Autoconf macros (2013.02.02-1) | |
The GNU Autoconf Archive is a collection of more than 450 macros for
GNU Autoconf that have been contributed as free software by friendly
supporters of the cause from all over the Internet. Every single one of
those macros can be re-used without imposing any restrictions
whatsoever on the licensing of the generated configure script. In
particular, it is possible to use all those macros in configure scripts
that are meant for non-free software. This policy is unusual for a Free
Software Foundation project. The FSF firmly believes that software
ought to be free, and software licenses like the GPL are specifically
designed to ensure that derivative work based on free software must be
free as well. In case of Autoconf, however, an exception has been made,
because Autoconf is at such a pivotal position in the software
development tool chain that the benefits from having this tool
available as widely as possible outweigh the disadvantage that some
authors may choose to use it, too, for proprietary software. | ||
| Usage Hints: | ||
We don't depend on any autoconf or automake packages, but obviously
any package using this will need to do so to do anything useful with it. | ||
