The proxy worker is licensed under the GPL. It is compiled as a binary separate from libcamera.so, and it is our understanding and intent that the GPL license doesn't propagate to libcamera.so. However, as the worker is executed by libcamera.so, the GPL license may cause concerns in this context, regardless of whether the concerns are valid or not. This uncertainty could be addressed by a combination of a legal review and an explicit intent clarification from the copyright holders. A simpler option is to relicense the code under the LGPL.
