In that source archive i see: GPLv2 GPLv2+ GPLv3+ LGPLv2+ LGPLv3+ GPLv2 is more restrictive but compatible with GPLv2+ only, not with GPLv3+. LGPLv2+ and LGPLv3+ code can be released under GPLv3+. MIT is always GPL compatible. If i have correctly understood the License Compatibility and Relicensing rules, the correct resultant license is (GPLv2 or GPLv2+) and GPLv3+ -- -- Antonio Trande sagitter AT fedoraproject dot org See my vCard.
