Oh hey, I wrote that! There are plenty of apps that are distributing LGPL code on the App Store, for example, VLC for iOS [1] includes FFmpeg. The static linking requirement on iOS 7 and earlier prompted some proprietary app developers (like Sparrow [2]) to distribute their object files to allow re-linking. Now that iOS 8 offers dynamic frameworks, I'm not sure if this situation has changed. Even though they are dynamically linked, it is impossible for the end user to replace a library due to the code signing requirements. 1. http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ios.html http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ios.html 2. https://web.archive.org/web/20131013023029/http://sprw.me/lgpl.php https://web.archive.org/web/20131013023029/http://sprw.me/lg...
