Hello!

I appreciate Creality finally getting around to attempting to attempting to fulfill their requirements under the GPL license, that they are required to comply with.

However, it seems like a large portion of the additional facility that makes the K2 filament changing system work is (deliberately?) only being distributed as a compiled shared object.

You cannot do this

Creality can either provide the relevant source files, or cease selling the K2.

This PR removes the binary-only objects that you cannot legally distribute. Please fix your release by including the source files that these files originate from as you are required to do so if you want to distribute a product containing Klipper.

@StevenCreality - You added these, can you help here?

Note: All these complaints apply equally to the K1 repository as well.

Hello @hemiao2023

You seem to work for creality, or are heavily involved with Creality Print at least. Can you see about getting this to someone who can actually solve the issue here?

@StevenCreality please give us an update on the status of this matter.

@fake-name We should involve Louis Rossmann, FULU and SFC. This is just as bad if not worse than Bambu Labs violations of AGPL.
