I don't think this concerns debian-legal, so i move the discussion
back to seafile ITP.
There is some confusion...

Copyright [2] is BSD-2-clause and there's a GPL3 LICENCE.txt file.
So it's the other way around.
Then you should review the whole package file by file.

Let me help :
* There is some copy/paste/rename of inet_ntop.c code [3][4],
ISC License, in lib/libccnet_utils.c.
* lib/buffer.c has a BSD-3-clause license.
* lib/net.c has an mcast_join function that seems directly taken from
Unix Network Programming sample code [5]. I did not find a license
for that file. There is a disclaimer, though.
* net/common/getgateway.c is from libnatpmp, see [6].
Now BSD-3-clause.
* net/common/list.h is a kernel header, GPL-2 license.
No GPL-3 found unless i missed something.
Hope that helped,
