commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=650c5408bd944270f965b4ee5cbc6126c332fc9f
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master
The live555 source code includes both a COPYING file (with the GPL-3.0
license text) and a COPYING.LESSER file (with the LGPL-3.0 license
text). However, all source files indicate a LGPL-3.0 license, and none
of them indicate a GPL-3.0 license. In addition,
http://live555.com/liveMedia/faq.html#copyright-and-license says the
source code is under the LGPL.
So, we:
- Bump LGPL License to 3.0+
- Add a comment about the GPL-3.0 license
Fixes:
- https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=13156
