MPL stands for Mozilla Public License. NPL (Netscape Public License) gives Netscape the privilege of re-licensing the modifications that is made to the software, they can take those modifications private, improve them and refuse to give the result. Netscape created the MPL, to address this concern. The MPL is much like the NPL but does not contain the clause that allows Netscape to re-license the modifications made.In short, The NPL and MPL allows you to take modifications private.

Is linking to an open source component enough to comply with GPL LGPL or MPL open source licensing?

NO!GPL, LGPL and MPL are complex licenses and without more knowledge this question can't be answered.The gist of GPL, you can do with the program what you want, as long as it is you who has control over the running program, including using it in business, adding features, changing the source code, fixing bugs.If you give a GPL licensed program to anybody else (distribution), you need to also make available the source code, and all changes you might have done to it. This includes derivative work, such as embedding it into another program. And you need tp make the program (including your changes) available under the same license.The LGPL requires the same conditions, except it allows to distribute the code in a binary form, and linked "dynamically" as a library in derivative work, such as larger applications.The MPL is a totally different license, with less restrictions.
