Fabrice, All,
On 2019-11-24 19:01 +0100, Fabrice Fontaine spake thusly:
> The GPL only applies to the C++ bindings, which are conditionally
> enabled with BR2_PACKAGE_LIBFTDI1_LIBFTDIPP1.
>
> The COPYING.LIB is indeed the LGPL-2.0, but the source file for
> libftdi1 states LGPL-2.1-only, see src/ftdi.c
>
> The src/ftdi_stream.c also bears a notice of the MIT license, so the
> library itself is under both LGPL-2.1-only and MIT.
Oh... This is libftdi1... I was mislead when looking at the libftdi git
tree: it is the same tree for 0.x and 1.x, and the MIT-licensed file is
only present on the 1.x branch, not the legacy 0.x branch... Damn...
I'll push a fix to remove the MIT license from libftdi (not libftdi1, me
stupid).

The GPL-2.0 also applies to the eeprom utility, see ftdi_eeprom/main.c
I've added it, and pushed to master. Thanks!
