Tam olarak oyle degil. Lisans sorunlari nedeniyle, MySQL'i on tanimli
olarak sunmayacaklar sanirim.

Rasmus Lerdorf'um mesaji:
===================================================================
What's the confusion here? Most non-GPL licenses are not compatible with
the GPL when it comes to combining a GPL'ed and the non-GPL'ed component
in the same package. This has nothing speficially to do with PHP. You
also cannot link a GPL'ed libmysqlclient library into Apache in any way
and redistribute that. So, something like mod_auth_mysql has that
problem.

This presents less of a problem to the end users. If you are not planning
on redistribution you can pretty much do whatever you want. As software
providers we are more inconvenienced by this. We cannot, for example,
distribute code whose only purpose is to link against a GPL'ed library.
I personally think potential linking restriction is beyond what the GPL
can cover since we aren't including any GPL'ed code, but RMS disagrees and
loves to beat on us for it. RMS's view is that if we distribute software
which is only useful if it is linked against a GPL'ed library then we are
indirectly violating the GPL by encouraging people to violate the license.
Our ext/readline extension was a sore point for a while until we made it
clear that the extension was aimed at the BSD-licensed libedit library
which happens to share the same API as the GPL'ed libreadline.

In the MySQL case we need to make sure that our MySQL extension can be
linked against a non-GPL'ed library so as to not encourage people to
violate the GPL. And MySQL AB will have some specific terms for
open-source projects like PHP that will make this easier for us.

You really shouldn't worry very much about this. Neither the PHP
developers nor the MySQL developers want to make life difficult on
PHP-MySQL users. We may not bundle libmysqlclient anymore, but that
doesn't mean that we will drop MySQL support. The bundled library did
cause some problems over the years with mismatched libraries and in the
end you are better off having a single libmysqlclient library on your
system that you link everything against instead of having some stuff
linked against one version of the library and other stuff linked against
another.
================================================

Benzer sekilde, Red Hat yeni surumunde MySQL 4 degil de 3.23 serisini
koyacak.

Saygilar.
