ear:

    Our organization is planning a big project which
is a Linux-Embedded system and will be sold as
products in the market.
    Through our investigation, We want to use DriectFB
at our system. But when we investigate the license of
DriectFB we met some trouble.

    We know the when we compiling the DriectFB, we
need
those sofeware which record at
"http://www.directfb.org/index.php?path=Documentation%2FUser+Manuals%2FREADME";
   They are:
       1. freetype (version >= 2.0.1)
       2. Libjpeg62
       3. libpng2 or libpng3
       4. Zlib 

   But we couldn't find which is necessary for
usage.So which is necessary for the DriectFB usage? 

   And we investigate each License to get this:
       1. FreeType License/GPL
       2. GPL/LGPL
       3. zlib/libpng License
       4. zlib/libpng License

   Is that correct?

   Through each Software we meet some trouble.
   For Example:
     libjpeg:GPL/LGPL. This is our comprehend of the
COPYING and some record in the ansi2knr.c. Through our
understand, DriectFB should be distributed under the
GPL.See the ansi2knr.c file.    

    How to understand the DriectFB under the LGPL?

    BTW: When we use the DriectFB, should we need to
connect the each software team which DriectFB use
requirement to get the License? 
    For Example: DriectFB need libjpeg, we must to
connect you to get a libjpeg license? If we must do
like this, could you give our some advise? And whether
we need to investigate the reuqirement of libjpeg?

   Maybe Those of questions are not suitable, but any
informations will help us a lot.

   Thank you very much again!
   Wish a successful further cooperation!

Best regards
