The LGPL license file is not being included in any of the distribution jars. The LGPL license file must be included as part of the distribution in order to fulfill the license obligation. This needs to be corrected.

    Actually we have a reference to the license inside the JAR in file META-INF/maven/org.dbunit/dbunit/pom.xml but we have no counter indications to include the LICENSE.txt file directly in META-INF.

    Can you provide a patch for the POM file to resolve such issue?

    Thank you!

    No, I cannot. I do not understand Maven and am unfamiliar with the changes necessary.

    Fixed in revision 633

    You should be able to find the correct LGPL 1.2 license in the next 2.2.3 release.

    Thank you for your advice!
