MySQL is distributed under GPL v2, but there are some licensing exceptions
that allow the client libraries to be linked with a non-GPL application,
so long as the application is under a license approved by Oracle.
For details see
'The Universal FOSS Exception, Version 1.0':
https://oss.oracle.com/licenses/universal-foss-exception/
A predecessor of that license exception is now deprecated 'FOSS License Exception':

Some innobase code from Percona and Google is under BSD license.
Some code related to test-suite is under LGPLv2.
