Hello,
Thank you for the comment.
I also find following commit.
-
https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-userspace/commit/e63a8b1628170151016...
BTW, I found another license question.
The libauparse.so are created following source codes.
In 'auparse/Makefile.am'
AM_CPPFLAGS = -I. -I${top_srcdir} -I${top_srcdir}/src -I${top_srcdir}/lib
-I${top_srcdir}/common
:
libauparse_la_SOURCES = lru.c interpret.c nvlist.c ellist.c \
auparse.c auditd-config.c message.c data_buf.c \
auparse-defs.h auparse-idata.h data_buf.h \
nvlist.h auparse.h ellist.h \
internal.h lru.h rnode.h interpret.h \
private.h expression.c expression.h tty_named_keys.h \
normalize.c normalize-llist.c normalize-llist.h \
normalize-internal.h normalize_obj_kind_map.h \
normalize_record_map.h normalize_syscall_map.h
We can find following line in internal.h
#include "auditd-config.h"
I can find src/auditd-config.h file which is GPLv2.
The "src/auditd-config.h" should be also LGPLv2.1
Regardss,

The intention stated in the README file is correct. The code in question is
only used by 3 plugins which are GPL and those functions are hidden from
external users of libaudit. The code can be relicenced to make it LGPL so
everything matches the intentions.

That file is also mislabeled. It is now corrected. Thanks for the review.
