Licensing



Hi guys - whilst checking something else this morning I came across an anomaly in the licensing mechanism for glib / gtk+ etc.

The vast majority of the header files state that it's LGPL. But occasionally there are GPL headers here and there. For example in glib-2, the following 11 header files stipulate GPL:-

      gbase64.h
      gbookmarkfile.h
      gchecksum.h
      ghmac.h
      glib-private.h
      glib-unix.h
      gmain.h
      gmain-internal.h
      gmessages-private.h
      goption.h
      gpoll.h

Just thought I'd flag it up in case it's unintentional,

John
