License clarification

[David Boeger]

Hello,

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but the IRC was fairly silent when
I logged in. I am trying to determine the license of packagekit-glib2. I
cloned PackageKit from GitHub and see that COPYING and most other files
under packagekit-glib2 indicat LGPLv2, but there are a few (including
packagekit.h) which suggest GPLv2:

*```*






*[root at daring-gibbon packagekit-glib2]#
pwd/root/PackageKit/lib/packagekit-glib2[root at daring-gibbon
packagekit-glib2]# grep "Licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public
License" *.h | wc -l39[root at daring-gibbon packagekit-glib2]# grep "Licensed
under the GNU General Public License" *.h | wc -l5*
*```*

It looks like the intention all the way back in 2010 was to put it under
the LGPL, but it's not clear to me that it is currently. Is there any
definitive way to determine the license?

Thanks,
David
