Dear All members,
We can find following lines in audit/README file
LICENSE
=======
The audit daemon is released as GPL'd code. The audit daemon's libraries
libaudit.* and libauparse.* are released under LGPL so that it may be
linked with 3rd party software.
I found that latest audit library linked libaucommon.so.
./lib/Makefile.in:AM_CPPFLAGS = -I. -I${top_srcdir} -I${top_srcdir}/auparse -I${top_srcdir}/common ./lib/Makefile.in:libaudit_la_LIBADD = $(CAPNG_LDADD) ${top_builddir}/common/libaucommon.la
./lib/Makefile.in:libaudit_la_DEPENDENCIES = $(libaudit_la_SOURCES) ../config.h ${top_builddir}/common/libaucommon.la
./auparse/Makefile.am:AM_CPPFLAGS = -I. -I${top_srcdir} -I${top_srcdir}/src -I${top_srcdir}/lib -I${top_srcdir}/common ./auparse/Makefile.am:libauparse_la_LIBADD = ${top_builddir}/lib/libaudit.la ${top_builddir}/common/libaucommon.la
./auparse/Makefile.am:libauparse_la_DEPENDENCIES = $(libauparse_la_SOURCES) ${top_builddir}/config.h ${top_builddir}/common/libaucommon.la
Libaucommo.so is created by following files
./common/Makefile.am:libaucommon_la_SOURCES = audit-fgets.c strsplit.c
And the license of audit/common/audit-fgets.c is GPLv2
This mean the license of latest audit libraries are also GPLv2.
Is my understanding correct?

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.

Hello,
Thank you for the comment.
I also find following commit.
- https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-userspace/commit/e63a8b1628170151016470075396e3697dd57a9b
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

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