We can if we use LGPLv3+ for libroute. That is not something I can decide, it is up to the FSF. But my quick reading is that LGPLv2-static-library + LGPLv3+-static-library + GPLv3+-program is a no go (the whole program must be licensed under the terms of the GPL, and one cannot relicense the LGPLv2 part under terms compatible with GPLv3+), and seeing that we might add cool features, it would be a bad idea to allow software hoarders to use the library. _______________________________________________ bug-inetutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-inetutils
