LICENSE="LGPL-2.1"

Each file from the author quite nicely has a LGPLv2.1-or-later header.

Files under XADMaster-1.10.8/lzma are under the public domain.

license.txt has gotten separated from the software under XADMaster-1.10.8/wavpack, but wavpack is licensed under the 3-clause BSD.


Some files under XADMaster-1.10.8/Crypto are under a modified version of the 2-clause BSD license (Brian couldn't help himself but to write yet more licenses); https://spdx.org/licenses/Brian-Gladman-2-Clause.html

XADMaster-1.10.8/XADNSISBzip2Handle.m is derived from a "Small bzip2 deflate implementation", licensed under the LGPLv2 (and of course the author has left it ambiguous if the license is LGPLv2-only or LGPLv2-or-later).


Therefore, should be; LICENSE="LGPL-2.1+ LGPL-2 BSD public-domain Brian-Gladman-2-Clause"
