RE: Open source licenses

Yes sure. I also did it ... without answer.
But my initial question concerned only the open source components linked to the PostgreSQL server that are not under the PostgreSQL license( ex: openssl, libcharset, ...).
Regarding the other modules added by EDB, I will ask again to EDB.

Best regards,

Nicolas DAVID

These installation packages are provided by EnterpriseDB, not by the PGDG.

I think your request is reasonable, but you'll have to ask the packager.
