[lxc-devel] License in lxc, GPL vs. LGPL

[Jonas Eriksson]

Hi,

I have been looking through the license of the lxc library and tools, and
noticed that lsm/selinux.c has a license header that says GPL instead of LGPL.
This is troublesome, since selinux.c is built and linked as a part of
liblxc.so, making it tricky to apply the LGPL license to the library.

My guess is that this is a simple mistake, and just needs to be updated.
However, in order to do this the people involved in creating the file needs to
sign off the change. I'm sending a patch for convenience, but it will require
that the people involved in authoring the file (Dwight Engen and S.Çağlar Onur)
approves so that their names can be added as signed-off-by in the footer.

Thanks,
/Jonas
