Open Source licensing

Overview

In addition to proprietary code, as part of the CODAbox product we use a number of open source software packages. These include packages covered by the GNU Public License 2 and GNU Public License 3.

The below is a list of open source packages we use on the CODAbox product. To build a package, for example the popt package, you need to get the .diff.gz, .dsc and .orig.tar.gz files. A handy tool to accomplish the task is git-buildpackage. For example, on a debian based Linux system this can be installed with "aptitude install git-buildpackage". Once you have git-buildpackage installed you can do the following:

git-import-dsc popt_1.10-3build1.dsc
cd popt
git-buildpackage --git-ignore-new
