    http://www.gnu.org already provides that information. Here’s the link for that. In this link you may find a brief explanation of how to place a program under several licenses including GNU Lesser GPL.

    EDIT: I checked some examples of LGPL’ed software in Ubuntu and their about boxes.

    • LibreOffice just prints some copyright information in the about box. Nevertheless, they have an option just to show the license information (also available online), where it shows the following:

    Licensing and Legal information

    This product is made available subject
    to the terms of GNU Lesser General Public License Version 3. A copy of
    the LGPL license can be found below.

    Jump to LGPL Version 3

    • Wine has the following information in its about box (also online):

    Wine is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under
    the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as published by the
    Free Software Foundation; either version 2.1 of the License, or (at
    your option) any later version.
