+  # Note that ecl-static does mean that we have things
+  # statically linked against GMP and ECL which are LGPL.
+  # I believe this should be alright: The way ppl are gonna
+  # interact with the distributed binaries (i. e. the binary
+  # cache) is Nix in the depot monorepo, so the separability
+  # requirement should be satisfied: Source code or overriding
+  # would be available as ways to swap out the used GMP in the
+  # program.
