    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-290?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15860655#comment-15860655 ] 

Thejas M Nair commented on LEGAL-290:
-------------------------------------

Note that all the 'GPL' files listed above contain this clause in header as well -

{code}
# As a special exception to the GNU General Public License, if you
# distribute this file as part of a program that contains a
# configuration script generated by Autoconf, you may include it under
# the same distribution terms that you use for the rest of that program.

> Google Glog is supposedly [BSD-3-Clause|https://github.com/google/glog/blob/master/COPYING]
> However, if I browse through the source code I can find some content, which likely falls under build chains per Niclas Hedhman,that is not appropriately licensed.  So I'm wondering if the reliance on glog would be considered OK?
