The copyright notices in the source files have the term
``Copyleft''. This does not have any legal meaning, so please use
Copyright in the notices. For more information, please see
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/licenses.html#WhatIsCopyleft : "To

The license of portaudio seems GPL-incompatible and possibly unfree
because of its second condition. We have asked address@hidden
regarding this issue. Do you want us to contact the portaudio
developer and ask if she/he wants to release it under BSD or GNU LGPL?
Thanks,
