I have a dilemma: COPYING.LIB is actually LGPL-2.1-or-later [1] but
the header in source code (src/libmbim-glib/mbim-device.c) is
LGPL-2.0-or-later [2].

So what should I take?

[1] https://spdx.org/licenses/LGPL-2.1-or-later.html
[2] https://spdx.org/licenses/LGPL-2.0-or-later.html

Best regards,
Yegor
