Re: Libreadline6 is GPLv3: incompatible with GPLv2-only software



* James Y Knight <foom@fuhm.net>, 2010-04-28, 11:32:
One of those (#553741) was filed against CLisp, which is licensed under GPLv2-only. Unfortunately, readline is under the GPLv3+ as of version 6, so making that change is impossible to do legally.

It's not the first time license change in a library triggers an
incompatibility: http://bugs.debian.org/512776
