From 158b69f04cac6685eadd1a96c36f5d1f644c5b0b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: wm4 Date: Thu, 5 Oct 2017 15:54:10 +0200 Subject: build: switch preliminary LGPL mode from v3 to v2.1 iive agreed to relicense things that are still in mpv to LGPLv2.1. So change the licenses of the affected files, and rename the configure switch for LGPL mode to --enable-preliminary-lgpl2. (The "preliminary" part will probably be removed from the configure switch soon as well.) Also player/main.c hasn't had GPL parts since a few commits ago. --- Copyright | 18 ++---------------- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) (limited to 'Copyright') diff --git a/Copyright b/Copyright index 47d57db01d..c8fde524c4 100644 --- a/Copyright +++ b/Copyright @@ -31,7 +31,7 @@ under mplayer2, and has been removed from mpv.
