The difference between glibc/gcclibs and the binutils is that for binutils only the version is extracted from the toolchain and the binutils are build from source in the BSP. Thus, we could also extract the license information from the downloaded source code, which would be the same license as in the toolchain. I'm not sure if this is actually simpler than exporting the license information in the toolchain. Michael _______________________________________________ ptxdist mailing list ptxdist@pengutronix.de
