License issues with libblkid1

Hi.  I just wanted to mention that libblkid1 is currently distributed via
ubuntu 14.04 as an LGPL libarary.  However, when viewing the source, a
file: version.c is distributed as GPL.  I believe this either breaks the
LGPL licensing, and the license either needs to be updated or the version.c
file (which appears to be irrelevant) needs to be removed.  Thanks for your
time
