Public bug reported: Many commercial (closed source) PHP web applications distribute their files as ionCube bytecode. To be able to execute the bytecode, a loader has to be installed as PHP module.
The loader is available at: http://www.ioncube.com/loaders.php (binary only) Its license allows redistribution: == [...] 2 DISTRIBUTION 2.1 The Loader may be freely distributed to third parties alone or as part of a distribution containing other items provided that this license is also included. 2.2 The Loader may under no circumstances be branded as another product, whether distributed or not. 2.3 Distribution as part of a commercial product is permitted provided such distribution is in accordance with clauses 2.1 and 2.2 with respect to the Loader. == ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Assignee: Max (bos) Status: In Progress ** Tags: need-packaging ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: ubuntu Assignee: (unassigned) => Max (bos) -- [need-packaging] ionCube loader (PHP module) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/524045 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
