Hi Leon,
The package seems to be okay except for the debian/copyright file. Just by looking at
the debdiff (excluding the unchanged upstream sources) I can identify several files with
additional copyright holders. Also, some files are GPL-2-only, which are not okay to
publish under the general GPL-2+ that is assumed for *.
Quick Question: How can I determine if a file is GPL-2-only or GPL-2+?
Is it the phrase "Free use of this software is granted under the terms
of the GNU General Public License version 2 (GPLv2)."?
That is correct. If there is a license header in a file with the GPL version specified and
it does not say "or later" or has a plus (+) after the GPL version then one has to assume
that only that specific version applies.
