Description Gustavo Carneiro 2005-01-15 21:23:07 UTC
The source code comment headers seem to suggest the license is LGPL, but
COPYING contains GPL.  This should be fixed.
Comment 1 Vincent Untz 2005-01-27 17:03:53 UTC
The COPYING file contains the LGPL. Where did you find the GPL? In a released
version or in CVS?
Comment 2 Gustavo Carneiro 2005-01-27 17:53:21 UTC
In CVS.  Hm... looking back I suspect it is autogen.sh's doing.  It seems to
overwrite COPYING with GPL every time :|
Yeah, that must be it.. sorry.
Comment 3 Elijah Newren 2005-01-27 18:12:07 UTC
Oh!  So that's why there were all these spurious changes to COPYING that I kept
seeing.  That didn't use to happen...
