To my knowledge most of proprietary development tools do allow you redistribute parts of them required for programs compiled with them run; however I don't have license to Kylix so I can't check it. You can see the EULA comes with the Kylix.
On the other side, is such a proprietary program really necessary? It is always not good to use any proprietary programs or any "trapped" free software. -Wei Mingzhi alias Whistler --- Piotr Roszatycki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi. > > I'd like to package DBDesigner4 (See Bug#204475, > http://www.fabforce.net/dbdesigner4/).
