Subject: [PATCH 2/2] libdpkg: Revert license change to GPL2+

The file lib/dpkg/showpkg.c used to be GPL-2+ with all commits with
copyright by Wichert Akkerman, until commit 6e1eb71ebffbbaca2e4bc when
it got changed to GPL-2 only.

Changes afterwards by:

  Wichert Akkerman (trivial change):

    commit d5e656d9: Removal of an include.

  Adam Heath (trivial changes):

    commit dbcb7449: Reorder an include;
    commit a1d9dc46: Adding a missing “void”, trivial;
                     Macroifying the unused dumpchain to avoid a
                     warning, removed in commit 07162068.

  Frank Lichtenheld (several changes)

  Pierre Habouzit (trivial change):

    commit 8ad47fe5: Adding a 'z' to a format string.

  Guillem Jover (several changes)

So with approval from Frank and myself, let's revert the license change
in 6e1eb71ebffbbaca2e4bc.
