Peter, All,

On 2019-11-13 16:17 +0100, Peter Korsgaard spake thusly:
> While the core connman code is licensed under GPL-2.0, the client code is
> GPL-2.0+ for compatibility with readline (which is GPL-3.0+).
> 
> Extend the _LICENSE with this info to clarify that linking against
> readline is OK licensing wise.

Applied to master, thanks.

It's a pity they do not have a license file for it, though...

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
