Thanks!
Too bad about the licensing issues... it seems like it might be a while
before they are resolved upstream. I think it's not totally correct to
say that the license of lib2geom is effectively GPL3+. Only the
copyright-holders of lib2geom can say that, right? The licenses are
effectively incoherent and I'd say the software is not something we have
the right to distribute :/ I'm no expert, however.
I did notice that Inkscape's COPYING has addressed this issue for a few
years, due to some files from copied GIMP, and reads: "As such, the
complete binaries of Inkscape are currently covered by the terms of GNU
GPL version 3 or later." Given that, I guess we are only waiting on
lib2geom to make a decision?
I saw the bug report on Inkscape's GitLab page [0], but I'm wondering if
there was actually any public discussion upstream, like on a mailing
list?
