I can't read Polish, so I don't know the exact libgadu license terms,
but if it's the usual GPL issue, for Fedora, we have this rule:

| However, we consider that the OpenSSL library is a system library, as
| defined by the GPL, on Fedora and therefore we are allowed to ship GPL
| software that links to the OpenSSL library.

<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:FAQ#What.27s_the_deal_with_the_OpenSSL_license.3F>

libgadu itself is LGPL, so it would be fine anyway, but Fedora's
interpretation also extends to packages that depend on libgadu, so there
really should not be an issue here that requires use of the emulation
layer (which is always fraught with problems).

Thanks,
Florian
