Thank you for reporting this issue. Having all the details was fantastic. We will have someone on the team investigate.

Thanks for submitting such a detailed report. It turns out a CopperSpice team member discovered this a few weeks ago. It only occurs on platforms using libc++ which affected us on Mac OS X and FreeBSD. The correction made it through CI and was pushed to github. If you build CopperSpice from the late...

The last time I looked at BSD (a while back) I noticed that CS had been packaged . . . I believe you meant to say FreeBSD which is a platform while BSD is a software license. Someone did add CopperSpice to FreeBSD but they modified our build files without discussing their changes. Sadly this build ...

Just so you know, adding CS to the Debian repository is not practical. We do not guarantee ABI stability for minor version updates. This would be an issue for the maintainers of Debian. Can you let us know us what issue would be solved by having CS in Debian? Maybe we can address your concern in som...

Not sure if you have seen our CopperSpice Journal. It consists of several articles and 40 different examples. We have an article which provides a full explanation about how to build CS on every supported platform. There are also other ones which explain the basic CMake commands required to build an ...

If the Qt Company are using LGPL v3, why do open source users have extra restrictions (not in the license) such as not being able to use LTS versions and can only have updates after 12 months. Later versions of Qt 5 and all of Qt 6 are released under the dual license of GPL 3 and LGPL 3. They moved...

released my CopperSpice Casper Calendar app as GPLv2. Did you pick GPL because of other libraries you are using? . . external speech synthesizer such as espeak which is GPLv3 I guess I would need to change the Casper Calendar license to GPLv3 to be compatible so that both use the same license? 1 We...

Other companies are allowed to charge any amount their user base is willing to pay. You would need to contact them to verify if these monetary values are accurate. As one person mentioned, you can link your closed sourced ( as in you charge money for using the program ) application with GPL or LGPL....

In our opinion you are trying to change too many things at one time. This will make it very difficult if not impossible to test and figure out which parts are not working. (1) The first step is to build CS from the command line using the ninja generator and ensure everything works before trying to s...

Yes, we do know about the release cycle for Debian. Some platforms update more frequently and others doing rolling releases like Arch. Thank you for letting us know the "tar.bz2" file was damaged. The ".zip" file was correct. We will remove the extra files and re-upload. Barbara
