It=E2=80=99s fine to have parts of the standar= d library under the LGPLv3+ and other parts under GPLv3+ (e.g., Readline support is under GPLv3+), as long as libguile and supporting code remain LGPLv3+. > I think I remember hearing that there are already other pieces of code > that came from guile-library and that have different licenses. SSAX is initially in the public domain. Running =E2=80=98make sc_GPL_version=E2=80=99 shows that a few tests from g= uile-lib are under GPLv2+ instead of (L)GPLv3+ and are not copyright FSF. It should be easy to fix, though. Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
