Dear All members,

We can find following lines in audit/README file

LICENSE
=======
The audit daemon is released as GPL'd code. The audit daemon's libraries
libaudit.* and libauparse.* are released under LGPL so that it may be
linked with 3rd party software.

I found that latest audit library linked libaucommon.so.

./lib/Makefile.in:AM_CPPFLAGS = -I. -I${top_srcdir} -I${top_srcdir}/auparse 
-I${top_srcdir}/common ./lib/Makefile.in:libaudit_la_LIBADD = $(CAPNG_LDADD) 
${top_builddir}/common/libaucommon.la
./lib/Makefile.in:libaudit_la_DEPENDENCIES = $(libaudit_la_SOURCES) ../config.h 
${top_builddir}/common/libaucommon.la

./auparse/Makefile.am:AM_CPPFLAGS = -I. -I${top_srcdir} -I${top_srcdir}/src 
-I${top_srcdir}/lib -I${top_srcdir}/common 
./auparse/Makefile.am:libauparse_la_LIBADD = ${top_builddir}/lib/libaudit.la 
${top_builddir}/common/libaucommon.la
./auparse/Makefile.am:libauparse_la_DEPENDENCIES = $(libauparse_la_SOURCES) 
${top_builddir}/config.h ${top_builddir}/common/libaucommon.la

Libaucommo.so is created by following files

./common/Makefile.am:libaucommon_la_SOURCES = audit-fgets.c strsplit.c

And the license of audit/common/audit-fgets.c is GPLv2

This mean the license of latest audit libraries are also GPLv2.

Is my understanding correct?
