Thank you.

I think it would be reasonable in the future. Currently almost
all obsolete api routines prefixed with 'lpx' have been replaced by
corresponding api routines prefixed with 'glp', and the difference
between a glp-routine and its obsolete lpx-version can be seen in
file src/glplpx01.c, which contains all deprecated lpx-routines.
