Incorrect terminology. Almost all of your software is licensed. The GPL,
LGPL, BSD license, etc. are all licenses. They have granted you license to
use the software. Your software is not commercially licensed ( maybe it is
since you purschased Mandrake ), but it is still licensed or you wouldn't be
legally able to use it.

You are faced with complying with the terms of the GPL even before you
decide to redistribute. It just happens that the terms include ( as you were
good to point out last night ) whatever purpose you should choose :).
