-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 According to Thomas Dickey on 10/26/2006 6:20 AM: >> >> How so?

Go read the gnulib documentation. Many modules are provided dual-license, including the stdint module. The files in the lib directory state GPL for convenience, since the bulk of current gnulib users are GPL'd programs. But the modules directory states the true license of each file, and when you use 'gnulib-tool --lgpl --import <modules>', gnulib-tool either rewrites the files to have an LGPL header as part of copying them from gnulib to your project directory, or fails because the modules you requested were not licensed under LGPL. - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
