Package: highlight Version: 2.7-1 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 2.3
src/cli/arg_parser.cc is licensed under version 3 or later of the GPL, but The regex library in src/core/re/* is licensed under version 2 only, as far as I can tell. Actually it just includes a copy of version 2 of GPL with no actual headers in the files. I have asked the author of the regex library (Jeff Stuart) about his intentions. André, it seems to me that including the arg_parser code implicitly makes the whole highlight package GPL3+. If that is OK, maybe you could update your licensing statements in the next release.
