Old COPYING-LIB #21

Closed ppisar closed 4 years ago

ppisar commented 4 years ago

I have two issues with COPYING-LIB:

The license text quotes Free Software Foundation postal address that is not valid anymore. Current one can be found at https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/lgpl-2.1.txt. Please update the license wording to deliver an up-to-date address to your users.

The license file carry an LGPLv2 text, but there is actually no source file with that license declaration. E.g. src/ucs.c and src/recode.h are LGPLv3+. I recommend replacing the COPYING-LIB file with LGPLv3 license text https://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl-3.0.txt. That will be more accurate and less confusing.

Thanks for letting me know. I have updated COPYING-LIB to LGPLv3.

Thank you for the prompt answer.

Now I noticed that two header files src/recode.h and src/recodext.h also have the old address.

I've fixed the source headers too, thanks.
