Hi all,

I am trying to track down the exact licensing of libgeda. Asking the
people who wrote it is usually a good way to be sure, so here goes :)

Is libgeda under GPL v2 or LGPL v2? The copyright file in Debian claims
LGPL while the geda website claims GPL.


As a definite & authorative answer to this question would enable me to
close 8 out of 49 release-critical bugs in Debian, a swift response
would be _very_ appreciated.


Thanks!
Richard
