Note that libsensors falls under the GPL, not the LGPL.

In more human language, that means it is FORBIDDEN to link any application

to the library, even to the shared version, if the application itself

does not fall under the GPL. This may or may not be changed in the future.

Note that since version 3.2.0, libsensors falls under the LGPL, not the

GPL as it used to. In more human language, that means it is now ALLOWED

to link any application to the library, even to the shared version,

regardless of the application's license.
