Packit 47b4ca
Packit 47b4ca
"Covered Code" is the source or object code of a version of Autoconf
Packit 47b4ca
that is a covered work under this License.
Packit 47b4ca
Packit 47b4ca
"Normally Copied Code" for a version of Autoconf means all parts of
Packit 47b4ca
its Covered Code which that version can copy from its code (i.e., not
Packit 47b4ca
from its input file) into its minimally verbose, non-debugging and
Packit 47b4ca
non-tracing output.
Packit 47b4ca
Packit 47b4ca
"Ineligible Code" is Covered Code that is not Normally Copied Code.

1. Grant of Additional Permission.
Packit 47b4ca
Packit 47b4ca
You have permission to propagate output of Autoconf, even if such
Packit 47b4ca
propagation would otherwise violate the terms of GPLv3.  However, if
Packit 47b4ca
by modifying Autoconf you cause any Ineligible Code of the version you
Packit 47b4ca
received to become Normally Copied Code of your modified version, then
Packit 47b4ca
you void this Exception for the resulting covered work.  If you convey
Packit 47b4ca
that resulting covered work, you must remove this Exception in accordance
Packit 47b4ca
with the second paragraph of Section 7 of GPLv3.

Packit 47b4ca
The availability of this Exception does not imply any general presumption
Packit 47b4ca
that third-party software is unaffected by the copyleft requirements of
Packit 47b4ca
the license of Autoconf.
