LGPLv2.1 vs. LGPLv2

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I see that the Licensing page [1] treats LGPLv2 and LGPLv2.1 as the 
same, with a short name of "LGPLv2".  Also, rpmlint complains about 
LGPLv2.1 in spec files.  Why is this?

I'm packaging a program [2] that uses 2.1 in the README/COPYING and 2 
in the source code headers.  I've received clarification on the 
license from the author as LGPLv2.1+, but now I wonder if it makes any 
difference since the spec tag would be the same in either case.
