Forget LGPL.

The LGPL Alternative

[...] an impenetrable maze of technological babble. They should not be 
in a general-purpose software license.

The LGPL concedes that the GPL is a better, more appropriate license,
and it allows any licensees to convert to the GPL at their option:

   You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General
   Public License

[...]

The LGPL, therefore, is an anomaly ... merely directs us back to the 
main event, the GPL license itself.
