To anybody who happens to read this and is confused, there is some enlightening information. Anonymous Coward is basically correct.
But the source is available to you if you want it, and you can distribute patches (but only with regards to porting the source, not adding functionality).
It is kind of restrictive, but not as bad as AC's underoos.
I assume you know what you're talking about, and I will look into it. It's something I installed through gentoo's emerge, I may have a false impression that I compiled it from source.
If that is so, I made a mistake and will delete it. I do not use programs for which I cannot access the source code, and I did not realize emerge would slip something in on me like that.

It's true that getting smart people to use it
instead of blackdown doesn't really solve anything,
for us anyway, he's right.
Maybe if they had opened it earlier; but we ain't
gonna run closed source shit on our 'puters so fuck
'em.
heh, couldn't resist to make fun of the poster
of that blurb
the commercial makes it pretty clear
the commercial is fugin embarassing to watch
it's so bad
what sucker sees this shitty movie is the only
