What is the issue?
ollama uses projects like llama.cpp as a statically linked dependency. The terms of the MIT license require that it distribute the copyright notice in both source and binary form. Yet if I grep
for “Georgi Gerganov” on my Linux and Windows installation folders for ollama, the copyright notices are nowhere to be found. This is a violation of the terms of the license which should be rectified.
What did you expect to see?
I expected the copyright notices of dependent projects to be at minimum present within the binary artifacts. Some people online are of the opinion that a mention of llama.cpp should be present in places like the README as well, although the license doesn’t strictly require that.
