 Replying to [comment:20 Otto42]:
 > Third, a URL is not actually necessary. The LGPL is a well-known and
 commonly used license, so simply stating that that is the license by name
 is also perfectly acceptable. Even legally.

 I wonder about how consequential you are with your arguments. Doesn't that
 mean as the GPL is even more well-known then the LGPL, that it should be
 removed from the package because of not being "necessary" and "bloat" as
 you coined it?
