Karl and other lawyers
Please stop calling me a lawyer. I'm not one.
rms suggested simply removing the @node and any sectioning command
at all from the beginning of the Texinfo versions of the licenses. That
way manuals can do whatever they want.
Sounded sensible to me, so barring objections, I'll make those changes
in a bit.
It will require some changes in exist

Hi, Gary!
Hi Clemens,
Thanks for the bug report. I'm forwarding to the bug-m4 mailing list
for
wider visibility.
This looks like a corner case for one of the files from gnulib that m4
imports during bootstrap: I'm forwarding to the bug-

The problem occurs even when gnulib-tool is being used. A common way
for developers to use gnulib-tool, which I use in many projects (not
just coreutils), is som
I notice that coreutils bootstrap has diverged from gnulib bootstrap.
Was this intended? Here's the current difference (counting the
coreutils patch I just proposed). Would there be any objection to
installing these changes into gnulib?

That didn't quite work for me:

Thanks for catching that misspelling, which should get fixed regardless
of whether it fixes his problem. I installed your patc
If I remember correctly, the initial reason why gnulib used the GPL
template for some LGPL file was because CoreUtils didn't yet use
gnulib-tool at the time. The CoreUtils maintainers didn't want to
manually change the files every time they were imported from gnulib.
I suggest we revert that deci
