Roughly, libguile itself and supporting modules under ‘ice-9’ are all LGPL. Those other files you found as GPL’d are either build-support programs, standalone programs, or test programs, which is fine. > Remove or remove and re-write or ask to the copyright holder of > the file inet_aton.c (guile-1.8.7/libguile/) to remove the 3º clause. This one is problematic. Bruno Haible suggests that we should be using ‘inet_pton’ to get both IPv4 and IPv6 support, so we should just do this (in 1.9 at least). Out of curiosity, do you have a script to generate such reports? I’d be interested in it, and perhaps it’d be a useful addition to Gnulib. Thanks, Ludo’.
