   5 The source code of CVC4 is open and available to students, researchers,
   6 software companies, and everyone else to study, to modify, and to redistribute
   7 original or modified versions; distribution is under the terms of the modified
   8 BSD license (reproduced below).  Please note that CVC4 can be configured
   9 (however, by default it is not) to link against some GPLed libraries, and
  10 therefore the use of these builds may be restricted in non-GPL-compatible
  11 projects.  See below for a discussion of CLN and GLPK (the two GPLed optional
  12 library dependences for CVC4), and how to ensure you have a build that doesn't
  13 link against GPLed libraries.

  56 CVC4 incorporates MiniSat code (see src/prop/minisat and src/prop/bvminisat),
  57 excluded from the above copyright.  See src/prop/minisat/LICENSE and

  65 CVC4 by default links against The GNU Multiple Precision (GMP) Arithmetic
  66 Library, which is licensed under GNU LGPL v3. See the file
  67 licenses/lgpl-3.0.txt for a copy of that license.  Note that according to the
  68 terms of the LGPL, both CVC4's source, and the combined work (CVC4 linked with
  69 GMP) may (and do) remain under the more permissive modified BSD license.

  71 The implementation of the floating point solver in CVC4 depends on symfpu
  72 (https://github.com/martin-cs/symfpu) written by Martin Brain.
  73 See https://raw.githubusercontent.com/martin-cs/symfpu/CVC4/LICENSE for
  74 copyright and licensing information.

  91  OPTIONAL GPLv3 libraries
  92 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  93
  94 Please be advised that the following libraries are covered under the GPLv3
  95 license.  If you choose to link CVC4 against one of these libraries, the
  96 resulting combined work is also covered under the GPLv3. If you want to make
  97 sure you build a version of CVC4 that uses no GPLed libraries, configure CVC4
  98 with the "--no-gpl" option before building (which is the default).  CVC4 can
  99 then be used in contexts where you want to use CVC4 under the terms of the
 100 (modified) BSD license.  See licenses/gpl-3.0.txt for more information.

 102 CVC4 can be optionally configured to link against CLN, the Class Library for
 103 Numbers, available here:
