integrated in Android. One of the primary issues raised at the moment
is the Android Open Source Project code base is not compatible with
GPL code. I am currently unaware of any userland audit interface that
is not under the GPL. I was wondering if anyone on the list knew of
any, if they even exist? Any information is much appreciated.
libaudit is under LGPL which gives you as much latitude as Glibc. The Linux
kernel itself is GPLv2. So, what's the problem with GPL on Android?
