Copyright:

LyX is free software, so you can freely copy and use it. But to protect
the authors, who have put a substantial amount of free time in developing
this product, you must follow some guidelines, in this case it's the
"GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE" version 2 or any later version.

On Debian Linux systems, the complete text of the GNU General
Public License (Version 2.0) can be found in /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL'.

Additionally LyX carries the following remarks:

While LyX has been released nominally under the GPL in the past, it
has in fact never been truly GPL.  Particularly, it has always been
linked to a closed source library.  While some have taken a view that
such actions violate the GPL, this is a legal impossibility.  The law
is quite clear that the release of the software by the original authors
and copyright holders changed the licenses.

Rather than leaving the issue to be debated, the following
clarifications are given.  This is *not* a change of license, but a
clarification of the license that LyX has always used.  All patches
submitted to LyX fall under this same license.

1) LyX is quasi-GPL software.  The terms of the GPL apply save where
they conflict with this statement.

2) There is no limitation on the license or nature of any software,
source, binary, library, or other, that may be linked to LyX, or to
which LyX may be linked.  Particularly, the second full paragraph of
section 2, from 'These requirements apply to the modified work'
through 'who wrote it.' is rejected in its entirety.

3) There is no limitation on combining LyX source code with code
subject to any other license, provided that the LyX source remains
under this same license.  Particularly,  Section 3 of the GPL is
rejected in its entirety. To redistribute a modified version of LyX,
the entire source code of the modified LyX must be made available under
the terms of this license or such other licenses as apply to portions
of the original or modified code.

4) Any other clause or interpretation of the GPL limiting the
combination of other software of any type and LyX is rejected in its
entirety, provided that the LyX code and modifications to the LyX
source code remains under this same license, or such other licenses as
apply to portions of the original or modified code.

5)  Nothing in this statement purports to alter or interpret the
license of any other software.  Any combination of other software with
LyX must also meet the requirements of that software.
