+    If you're using LGPLv3 in your project, be sure to include copies
+    of both GPLv3 and LGPLv3, since LGPLv3 is now written as a set
+    of additional permissions on top of GPLv3.</p>

+  <a href="/licenses/gpl-howto.html">the GNU licenses howto</a>.  It's
+  more future-proof because it no longer includes the FSF's postal

+the package's license should also be updated appropriately.</p>
