The LGPL clarification on https://download.racket-lang.org/license.html states that we need to be able to re-link the software with modified versions of Racket. I am not sure how to achieve that, so here are my technical questions, directed to anyone on this list who can answer them: 0) To simplify things, the same Racket version and OS can be used for both "raco make" to produce the bytecode files as well as the "raco exe" part to "link" the executable. 1) Given a set of ZO files compiled using "raco make", is it possible to create an executable from these ZO files using "raco exe", or a call to `create-embedded-executable`, without having access to the source files themselves? If it is possible, how? 2) Is it possible to distribute a Racket package as ZO files only and actually be able to use it from Racket? If it is possible, how?
