mgetgroups: relax license to LGPLv2+ getgrouplist is part of glibc and LGPLv2+; the mgetgroups module is merely an ease-of-use wrapper around this interface. There's nothing in the algorithm worth protecting by the more-restrictive GPLv3+. See also this thread. https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2013-05/msg00092.html * modules/getugroups (License): Change from GPLv3+. * modules/mgetgroups (License): Likewise. * modules/getgroups (License): Change from LGPLv3+.
