There are two bugs here:

a) licensecheck fails to detect license fulltext PSF-2
b) licensecheck misdetects "released under the GPL" as a license grant

Of those, I consider a) to be important, and b) to be only minor.

I have rephrased the bugreport to track only a) (and also corrected a typo
in the license shortname PSF-2).

Thanks for reporting,

 - Jonas
