Hello, can I include and distribute Microsoft.VC80.CRT.manifest, msvcp80.dll and msvcr80.dll with my app with embedded firebird? Is it license violation or not?
Without these files is my app not working properly. thank you

After reading the Firebird license agreement it seems that this distribution is legal if we provide some wording stating that the end users can get the Firebird source code for free. Is there any special place this statement needs to appear and is there specific wording that I need to include?

It is sufficient to include them, along with a link to the source code kit of the build you are installing (that's the 5-digit number included in the file name of the binary kit).

They should be there, so apparently some oversight has occurred at some point. We'll get that fixed for the 2.5.1 release but if you need them now for a Linux or MacOSX install, you can pick them up here:
