Hello, thank you for all the responses so far. I guess we will have a look at fossology and fossas, but we would prefer a solution which does not require an additional thirdparty service. We know that there are different types of GPL licenses which bring different obligations.
We are searching for an automatic mechanism to detect linking to a shared library from a GPL package. We thought there might be a way to utilize the build system’s shared library resolver which is used for the automatic runtime added runtime dependencies [1]. For static libraries we found that they are disabled by default [2].
