The use of these CALGO

declaring GPL license
Hi all, I'm currently writing an R package and want to declare a GPL2 license. According to the license agreement, I'm supposed to display: "This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation ... See the GNU General Public License for more details."

Libvirt daemon is not getting started

In that case I am not getting any error but PID file is not getting created in this case too.
