BlueZ - LGPL dependency with GPL headers and sources

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

 



We are making a BLE only product for embedded system and cannot use the whole bluez package due to lack of resources.  We noticed that the BLE specific code (src/shared) is licensed under LGPL and we are trying to leverage the code as a shared library for our proprietary source BLE application, similar to btgatt-server tool. While compiling, we noticed the LPGL code has a dependency with the following header and source files which are licensed as GPL.

lib/bluetooth.h
lib/hci.h
lib/mgmt..h
lib/uuid.c
lib/uuid.h
src/shared/ad.c
src/shared/ad.h

Are there plans to make the above files LGPL or LGPL compatible?

Are there any plans in the future to remove the GPL dependencies from the LGPL code?

Thanks,
Trey
