After including the csharpcomp module in libidn, I realized I don't
need any of the C code in that module. I just need csharpcomp.sh.in,
csharp.m4 and csharpcomp.m4.
How about installing the following csharpcomp-script module for those
files, and patching the csharpcomp module to depend on the former
module?
Even with this, I can't use this in Libidn. The reason was silly: the
"License:" says GPL, but Libidn required LGPL. I have no problem with
the script staying GPL, it is only used during compilation, so it
won't affect the C# code license (which incidentally is GPL anyway;
only the C library is LGPL, that's why I use gnulib-tool --lgpl for
libidn).
Is there any way to express this license situation?
How about changing the License of the csharpcomp-script module to
"helper-GPL", and make "helper-GPL" LGPL-compatible, as far as
gnulib-tool is concerned?
Thanks!
