The licensing list [1] states that the license "BSD with advertising" is not compatible with GPLv2/v3. But what means compatible? For example, I would like to use/create a package for a library which is released as "BSD with advertising". Consider an application licensed as GPLv2 which uses the shared library. Is this allowed? In this case the library would be licensed as "BSD with advertising" and the application which uses that library as GPLv2. If I remember right, then there was some kind of clause in the GPLv2/v3 license which said that even linking against such a library is not allowed but I'm really not sure. Maybe my mind plays tricks with me ;-) Can someone confirm or deny this?
