Dear efibootmgr maintainer.
I am trying to use efibootmgr. Then I checked the license of efibootmgr at first.
I found the COPYING file in the top of github repository.
This COPYING includes GPLv2 statement.
But I found following lines in src/fix_coverity.h
/* * fix_coverity.h * Copyright 2017 Peter Jones <pjones@redhat.com> * * Distributed under terms of the GPLv3 license. */
And some files include "fix_coverity.h" file.
It seems that current efibootmgr is GPLv3.
I also checked efivar git repository in https://github.com/rhboot/efivar This repository also include src/fix_coverity.h, but the license is LGPL-2.1
// SPDX-License-Identifier: LGPL-2.1-or-later /* * fix_coverity.h * Copyright 2017 Peter Jones <pjones@redhat.com> * */
And I also found following commit to change the license of src/fix_coverity.h from GPLv3 to LGPLv2.1 or later
So I confused to identify correct license of efibootmgr.
I want to know the efibootmgr maintainers opinion.
Regards,
