Hi @Cristian Rodríguez<mailto:crrodriguez@opensuse.org>,
Thank you so much for the rapid response. This will be very helpful. Sure I will check with our legal expert team regarding this.
Just curious to know about the below questions from you. If you can provide me the explanation , I will be thankful.
As I know , Glibc - libraries are dynamically linked and LGPL as main license - So good to use.
we should check whether those GPL file used / linked directly in our project , if yes then we have to make everything under GPL as main license. Is my understanding correct?
Please correct me if I am wrong. I am new to Glibc ☺
Best regards,
Benilda A

- files starting with tst are tests, they do not end in any final distributable binary
- pt-kill is for the gnu hurd.. I am not aware of any commercial product using it..
- iconv-charmap is used in the command line tools.
You need a license lawyer to answer what this means for you.
