The Debian package of MySQL was first debianzed on 1997-04-12 by Christian
Schwarz <schwarz@debian.org> and ist maintained since 1999-04-20 by
Christian Hammers <ch@debian.org>.
It can be downloaded from http://www.mysql.com/
Copyright:
According to the file "COPYING" all parts of this package are licenced
under the terms of the GNU GPL Version 2 of which a copy is available
in /usr/share/common-licenses.
To allow free software with other licences than the GPL to link against the
shared library, special terms for "derived works" are defined in the file

More information can be found on http://www.mysql.com/company/legal/licensing/
The manual had to be removed as it is not free in the sense of the
Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG).

Appendix I MySQL FLOSS License Exception
****************************************
Version 0.3, 10 February 2005
The MySQL AB Exception for Free/Libre and Open Source Software-only
Applications Using MySQL Client Libraries (the "FLOSS Exception").
Exception Intent
================
We want specified Free/Libre and Open Source Software ("FLOSS")
applications to be able to use specified GPL-licensed MySQL client
libraries (the "Program") despite the fact that not all FLOSS licenses
are compatible with version 2 of the GNU General Public License (the
"GPL").
Legal Terms and Conditions
==========================
As a special exception to the terms and conditions of version 2.0 of the
GPL:
1. You are free to distribute a Derivative Work that is formed
entirely from the Program and one or more works (each, a "FLOSS
Work") licensed under one or more of the licenses listed below in
section 1, as long as:
a. You obey the GPL in all respects for the Program and the
Derivative Work, except for identifiable sections of the
Derivative Work which are not derived from the Program, and
which can reasonably be considered independent and separate
works in themselves,
b. all identifiable sections of the Derivative Work which are not
derived from the Program, and which can reasonably be
considered independent and separate works in themselves,
i
are distributed subject to one of the FLOSS licenses
listed below, and
ii
the object code or executable form of those sections are
accompanied by the complete corresponding
machine-readable source code for those sections on the
same medium and under the same FLOSS license as the
corresponding object code or executable forms of those
sections, and
c. any works which are aggregated with the Program or with a
Derivative Work on a volume of a storage or distribution
medium in accordance with the GPL, can reasonably be
considered independent and separate works in themselves which
are not derivatives of either the Program, a Derivative Work
or a FLOSS Work.
If the above conditions are not met, then the Program may only be
copied, modified, distributed or used under the terms and
conditions of the GPL or another valid licensing option from MySQL
AB.

3. Definitions
a. Terms used, but not defined, herein shall have the meaning
provided in the GPL.
b. Derivative Work means a derivative work under copyright law.
4. Applicability This FLOSS Exception applies to all Programs that
contain a notice placed by MySQL AB saying that the Program may be
distributed under the terms of this FLOSS Exception. If you
create or distribute a work which is a Derivative Work of both the
Program and any other work licensed under the GPL, then this FLOSS
Exception is not available for that work; thus, you must remove
the FLOSS Exception notice from that work and comply with the GPL
in all respects, including by retaining all GPL notices. You may
choose to redistribute a copy of the Program exclusively under the
terms of the GPL by removing the FLOSS Exception notice from that
copy of the Program, provided that the copy has never been
modified by you or any third party.
