"LGPL 2.1 only" is not suitable for libvirt actually. Our license is explicitly using "LGPL v2.1 or later" so that we can be compatible with apps using (L)GPL3 too. So yeah I'd really recommend using 2.1+ too Regards, Daniel -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, London -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://ovirt.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :|
