> Let us see where that passage mentions the LGPL. > The LGPL is definitely not "copyright notice". > The LGPL isn't a notice stating that "this License" (that is, the GPL) applies to the code. > The LGPL has nothing to do with "any non-permissive" terms because > it's a set of permissions. > The LGPL isn't a notice of absense of any warranty, those notices come in the text of the GPL. > "This License" in the context of the GPL means the GPL. > Do I miss anything? There is a block of text at the tail of GPL license to show users how to apply LGPL: The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General Public License instead of this License. But first, please read <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-not-lgpl.html>. > Savannah hosting requirements don't include knowing copyright law > of all possible jurisdictions.

I meant that I was as the same with you that I couldn't fulfill every conditions especially the conditions you've mentioned that with mistakes. > https://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/ValidNotices/ > Doesn't it explain what files should have copyright and license notices? You sent me the link mentioned these following 2 types of copyrightable files: a) For copyright purpose, any file more than ten lines long is nontrivial, so it should have copyright and license notices. b) If some of your files cannot carry such notices (e.g. binary files), then you can add a README file in the same directory containing the copyright and license notices.
