The GPL excludes system libraries from contamination issues.

  LGPL does not allow static linking without disclosure. It is why the wxWidgets has a license that allows creating monolithic commercial blob dependent binaries for Windows, Linux Gtk/X11, and MacOS. https://wxwidgets.org/about/licence/ https://wxwidgets.org/about/licence/ People should not static link GPL/LGPL code to closed source blobs, and expect copyright/copyleft trolls to leave their project violating licenses. =3

    Why would you want to not disclose that you used an LGPL library?
    • Joel_Mckay 25d ago
      LGPL requires whatever you static link it with is GPL/OSS. This is sometimes impossible with mystery binary blobs from manufacturers. =3
