According to the FSF you need to provide the sources also for things you did not modify (see the link ciaran provided), because you are redistributing those binaries and distribution means you have to provide sources yourself. It is not enough to refer to other parties, because those other parties can take their sources offline and you will still have to provide your users with the sources if/when they want them. You are responsible for providing the sources of any GPL binaries you distribute. Maurice. -- Maurice van der Pot Gentoo Linux Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gentoo.org Creator of BiteMe!
