[U-Boot] Question about GPL v3 font

[Masahiro Yamada]

Hi.

According to the Kconfig entry,
drivers/video/fonts/nimbus_sans_l_regular.ttf
is licensed under GPL v3.

How the license is handled when U-Boot is compiled with
CONFIG_CONSOLE_TRUETYPE_NIMBUS=y ?

I am asking this since many companies, I guess,
have GPL-v3 allergy.


config CONSOLE_TRUETYPE_NIMBUS
        bool "Nimbus Sans Regular"
        depends on CONSOLE_TRUETYPE
        default y
        help
          Nimbus Sans L is a version of Nimbus Sans using Adobe font sources.
          It was designed in 1987. A subset of Nimbus Sans L were released
          under the GPL. Although the characters are not exactly the same,
          Nimbus Sans L has metrics almost identical to Helvetica and Arial.
