No.  as mentioned earlier, this is no fault of the library
packages in question, and instead is the fault of upstream authors'
and/or other package maintainers not comprehending the implications of
the gpl.  there were other options brought up in this thread that would
be a better course of action.  this also doesn't solve the problem, and
will only complicate things further when another similar style license
problem comes out.
