Thanks, that indeed sounds like the right solution (also it gives me a heads up that I'm out of date, as the copy I have says only "GPLv2+"). That just leaves the discrepancy I noticed where relocatable.[ch] specifically mention the LGPL in the versions in gnulib git, whereas the manual says that all the git sources should mention the GPL. > GPL modules that are only used at build time are supposed to be > compatible with --lgpl. > Thanks for confirming that. -- http://rrt.sc3d.org
