Did you read the license?
The majority of the software in Debian is licensed under the GPL, that is why
Debian is referred to as licensed under the GNU GPL.
I would think the license would be applied to the act of final distribution of
Debian, to the source LiveCD, or other ways. So that when o

A comparison between libposix and other "libc" implementations is available

Newlib would be equivalent to eglibc and uclibc in the table. More

Hello,
since dpkg 1.15, update-alternatives is more strict and forbids lots of
silly operations that were previously accepted. Unfortunately improper
usage of u-a in the past could lead to cruft files that cause bugs on
upgrade. You have examples in #530633 and #531611.

Thanks for the suggestions, but libposix already has well defined goals. We
in the project believe that libposix may be useful for a lot of people,
including people who are not the target audience. Again, we welcome anyone
who wants to join in.
