This package was debianized by Ron Lee <ron@debian.org> on Sun, 13 Feb 2000 18:40:00 +1030. more information about wxWindows, as well as the source these debs are produced from can be found at www.wxwindows.org Note for Debian users: ====================== Most of the core wxWindows library is licenced under the wxWindows Library Licence (included below), however some additional features of the library may include source licenced under terms which do not include the exception permitting you to licence binary object code versions of works based on the Library under terms of your own choice. At any time and without warning, newer versions of the Debian binary packages may include such code. In short, if you plan to licence apps built against these debs under terms compatible with the GPL or LGPL, then you have nothing to worry about. If you wish to release your code under a licence which does not grant all of the same rights as the LGPL would assert but would be permitted under the terms of the exception, then you are strongly advised to either check the licencing terms of all components that these debs (and all future versions that you use) are built with, or build your own binaries of wxWindows which include only such code as is definitely covered by the exception. You should presume that these debs will fall under the provisions of the unmodified LGPL unless you can prove otherwise, however this note in no way alters the actual terms of the authorative licence detailed below, it is intended to be purely informative of the fact that the Debian binary packages will be built primarily with features useful to Free Software developers and may not be suitable "as is" for compiling software for distribution that is licenced incompatibly with the LGPL. See /usr/share/common-licenses for the full text of the LGPL. Modifications and additions to the Library itself are encouraged to be placed under the wxWindows Library Licence. We hope you find it useful. -- Ron ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Preamble ======== The licensing of the wxWindows library is intended to protect the wxWindows library, its developers, and its users, so that the considerable investment it represents is not abused. Under the terms of the wxWindows Licence, you as a user are not obliged to distribute wxWindows source code with your products, if you distribute these products in binary form. However, you are prevented from restricting use of the library in source code form, or denying others the rights to use or distribute wxWindows library source code in the way intended. The wxWindows Licence establishes the copyright for the code and related material, and it gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library. It also asserts that no warranty is given by the authors for this or derived code. The core distribution of the wxWindows library contains files under two different licences: - Most files are distributed under the GNU Library General Public Licence, version 2, with the special exception that you may create and distribute object code versions built from the source code or modified versions of it (even if these modified versions include code under a different licence), and distribute such binaries under your own terms. - Most core wxWindows manuals are made available under the "wxWindows Free Documentation Licence", which allows you to distribute modified versions of the manuals, such as versions documenting any modifications made by you in your version of the library. However, you may not restrict any third party from reincorporating your changes into the original manuals. wxWindows Library Licence, Version 3 ==================================== Copyright (c) 1998 Julian Smart, Robert Roebling et al Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this licence document, but changing it is not allowed.

The exception is that you may use, copy, link, modify and distribute under the user's own terms, binary object code versions of works based on the Library. 3. If you copy code from files distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public Licence or the GNU Library General Public Licence into a copy of this library, as this licence permits, the exception does not apply to the code that you add in this way. To avoid misleading anyone as to the status of such modified files, you must delete this exception notice from such code and/or adjust the licensing conditions notice accordingly. 4.
