Description clivejo 2017-06-21 15:02:56 UTC 
Do these 2 files intentionally have a higher license (GPL-2+ instead of LGPL-2+)?

Files: src/qtquick/PropertyContainer.cpp
 src/qtquick/PropertyContainer.h
Copyright: 2012, Dan Leinir Turthra Jensen <admin@leinir.dk>

Overall license may end up being GPL-3 (or LGPL-3 if those 2 files are able to be relicensed to LGPL-2.1+).

Comment 2 Dan Leinir Turthra Jensen 2017-08-24 11:32:27 UTC 
Not really, no - thank you for reporting it as well! As the copyright of them is entirely mine, i'll relicense them to equalise with the rest of the code and let that be it (there's no particularly good reason for it to be not-lgpl anyway)

Will you make a new release with this commit included?
Comment 5 Dan Leinir Turthra Jensen 2017-08-25 08:10:21 UTC 
Not for the 1.x series, but the commit is self-contained and /should/ apply to the old code without issue, if you want to grab the commit and use it as a patch for packaging. The next release will be 2.0 (possibly with a beta ahead, but that's the next release).
