If its GPL2, it should include source codes for the updates, but that (I think) is the bare minimum that they are obliged to do.<br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Fri, 6 Mar 2009 20:03:00 +0000<br>From: stuart.james.burns@gmail.com<br>To: chester@mailman.lug.org.uk<br>Subject: [Chester LUG] A question re OS updates.<br><br>At the moment, I am trying to get Oracle Unbreakable linux working. Apart from them being a bit silly in zipping up ISOs (I kid you not!) the major issue is updates. We do have a CSI login at work (A oracle support licence) but I thought anyone who distributed GPL stuff was obliged to allow you updates, ie get the packages up2date would otherwise install? Can anyone help me here. I am beginning to really really hate Oracle already.<br>
<br>Any thoughts appreciated.<br><br /><hr />Windows Live Messenger just got better. <a href='http://clk.atdmt.com/UKM/go/134665230/direct/01/' target='_new'>Find out more!</a></body>
