Steps to Reproduce: $ rpm -q --qf '%{LICENSE}\n' librpm GPL $ Actual Results: rpm-4_0-4.0.4/COPYING: The entire code base may be distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL), which appears immediately below. Alternatively, all of the source code in the lib subdirectory of the RPM source code distribution as well as any code derived from that code may instead be distributed under the GNU Library General Public License (LGPL), at the choice of the distributor. The complete text of the LGPL appears at the bottom of this file. This alternatively is allowed to enable applications to be linked against the RPM library (commonly called librpm) without forcing such applications to be distributed under the GPL.
