I don't know where you have seen this, but it seems incorrect, and
Stefan's patch is good. All license files say:

 * This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
 * modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public
 * License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either
 * version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.

So the license is really LGPLv2.1 or later.

However, our encoding for the "or later" in Buildroot currently doesn't
comply with SPDX. I.e we use LGPL-2.1+ and not LGPL-2.1-or-later. I'll
fix that up when applying.

Best regards,

Thomas
