Is distributing a compiled version of the code that has been modified allowed

[hackerncoder]

Hello, I have been updating the NixOS megasync package and a user asked if the license (in Nix) could be switched to unfreeRedistributable which would allow it to be distributed in compiled form by the Nix infrastructure.

However we modify the code to allow it to compile and run on NixOS, and as far as my reading of the megasync license goes that is not allowed.
Am I reading it wrong, or is that correct? If it is correct, could the license be modified to allow for distributing a (compiled) modified version of the code?

Hi @hackerncoder ,

We will amend our LICENSE soon to allow modifications strictly necessary for ensuring compatibility, platform portability, or bug fixing. This includes permitting derivative works needed for compilation and operation on additional platforms or Linux distributions. However, commercial exploitation is strictly prohibited, including:

• Integration with competing cloud storage services.
• Commercial distribution or use for monetary gain.
• Modification or repackaging intended to promote another service.

Thanks for your suggestions.
