Incompatibility of mentioned Licenses #10

The LICENSE.md file refers the "GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0" (LGPL-3.0) while README.md refers the "GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or (at your option) any later version" (GPL3+).

It slightly confuses.

Please update LICENSE.md or README.md with proper license.

Fixed citing in the README.md the correct license (LGPL-3.0 or later version). Thanks.

band-a-prend commented 2 years ago

Thanks. The last 2 paragraphs of README.md still refers GPL instead of LGPL.

Sorry for annoying, it could be meaning for those who will want to package library for linux distributives.

aamaricci commented 2 years ago

No problems. Indeed, thanks for pointing this out. References to GNU LGPL should now appear everywhere in the README.md.
