Hello, in one of my packages I have multiple files paragraphs with license GPL-2+, at the end I have a standalone license paragraph labeled GPL-2, this generates a lintian warning about missing license paragraph GPL-2+. Shouldn't lintian ignore the +, because it only means this version or, at your choice, any later version? I think it would be wrong to label the GPL-2 license paragraph GPL-2+, because this text is the exact text of version 2, even if you can choose to use any later version. If you only have GPL-2+ files paragraphs, lintian also generates a warning about unused license paragraph: GPL-2. What if you have both GPL-2 and GPL-2+ files paragraphs? Regards Andreas Noteng
