eigen/COPYING.README
Benoit Jacob 504edbddb1 Replace COPYING.LGPL by a copy of the LGPL 2.1 (instead of LGPL 3).
Indeed, all the LGPL code we use, is licensed under LGPL 2.1 (with some files being "2.1 or later").

Plaintext

Eigen is primarily MPL2 licensed. See COPYING.MPL2 and these links:
http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/2.0/
http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/2.0/FAQ.html
Some files contain third-party code under BSD or LGPL licenses, whence the other
COPYING.* files here.
All the LGPL code is either LGPL 2.1-only, or LGPL 2.1-or-later.
For this reason, the COPYING.LGPL file contains the LGPL 2.1 text.
If you want to guarantee that the Eigen code that you are #including is licensed
under the MPL2 and possibly more permissive licenses (like BSD), #define this
preprocessor symbol:
EIGEN_MPL2_ONLY
For example, with most compilers, you could add this to your project CXXFLAGS:
-DEIGEN_MPL2_ONLY
This will cause a compilation error to be generated if you #include any code that is
LGPL licensed.
