The bootstrap.conf is licensed under the terms of the LGPL, but then suggests to "See the GNU General Public License for more details". That should be the "GNU Lesser General Public License" instead, of course.

The tools/virt-xml-validate.in file is licensed under the terms of the GPL, but then says "You should have received a copy of the GNU *Lesser* General Public License". Thus scratch the "Lesser" here.

There is no "GNU Lesser General Public License, version 2", only version 2.1 and later. In "version 2", the license was still called "Library" instead of "Lesser". So assume that version 2.1 is meant here.
