Oops, that's obviously wrong. It might result from the fact that I
copied class skeletons from already existing Thunar plugins in the
Thunar source code, which is LGPL. I must have copied the license
header as well. My bad.

As the plugin doesn't provide any libraries other software could link
to, it's GPL, *not* LGPL.
