  AIUI, it''s the same license, which was renamed in its 2.1 version,
so:

  This license is /usr/share/common-licenses/LGPL-2, yes?

I guess I assumed that even if the Lesser and Library GPLs are very similar 
(the Lesser being an updated version of the Library + name change), the 
name change meant that code under the Library GPL doesn''t automatically
become Lesser GPL.

But if I''ve misunderstood, and the name change isn''t a
blocker, then I''ll of
course revert my change.
