Hello. My main concern about this issue was that anybody making a diff between 0.10.35-6 and 0.10.35-6.1 could think that I changed on my own the license of many files from GPLed to LGPLed.
Since GPL is more restrictive than LGPL, and I do not own the copyright for the gettext package, I'm sure I can't relicense the files in this way. So I had two choices: 1. Explain in the copyright file that the previously GPLed files in the intl directory have been replaced by their almost-identical counterparts from glibc. 2. Change their license back to GPL, so the diffs between one version and another one seem like an ordinary patch, which just fixes the code without touching the license. The solution 2. produced a smaller diff file for the gettext package and did not require to change the copyright file, so this is the solution with which I feel more comfortable, and it is what I have done in gettext 0.10.35-7. Thanks. -- "941bc7d4ca79d67aa0a82356859853bf" (a truly random sig)
