OpenSSL - (A)GPL license incompatibility #501

Closed namazso closed 3 months ago

namazso commented 2 years ago

Since the license doesn't have the OpenSSL exception and OpenSSL license is incompatible with (A)GPL do I really need to buy a license just so I can distribute any builds with https support?

namazso commented 2 years ago

nevermind, openssl changed license to Apache2 a few months ago, so it's good now

namazso commented 2 years ago

actually, the submodule one is the incompatible licensed 1.1.1 version, so this still is an issue to some degree as users need to switch over to another openssl version to redistribute anything built with this lib unless buying a license
