There is no such thing as version 2 of the "GNU Lesser General Public 
License".

There is either "GNU Library General Public License" version 2.0 or "GNU 
Lesser General Public License" version 2.1.

The former is considered obsolete by the Free Software Foundation, and 
the latter is by the Free Software Foundation interpreted as a successor 
to the older _Library_ license even if differently named.


Kind regards,
