I am not a lawyer so please don't consider this as a legal advice. But from my interpretation of LGPL license this is perfectly legal. You can combine LGPL 2.0 licensed software in one shared library and use that in your application. Keep in mind that if you link any GPL code shared or static into this shared library, this will change its license to GPL which in turn legally forces you to license your application under GPL as well (or any compatible license) _______________________________________________ Libav-user mailing list [email protected] https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/libav-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email [email protected] with subject "unsubscribe".
