Bug#604557: [PATCH 5/5] copyright: GPL-2+?



COPYING and the doc/ directory contain the GPL version 2.  The
Copyright file just says "GPL".  So it is not quite clear what
version is meant.

This patch assumes GPL-2+ to be generous and to match the existing
text in debian/copyright.
---
Maybe it would be possible to clarify what version is meant with
upstream.

That's the end of the series.  Hope that helps.
