Hi Ted,

Looking at e2fsprogs, the installed copyright file says:

  ...

  On Debian GNU systems, the complete text of the GNU General Public
  License can be found in `/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2'.

but the COPYING file in the source says:

  This package, the EXT2 filesystem utilities, are made available
  under the GNU Public License version 2, with the exception of the
  lib/ext2fs and lib/e2p libraries, which are made available under the
  GNU Library General Public License Version 2, the lib/uuid library
  which is made available under a BSD-style license and the lib/et and
  lib/ss libraries which are made available under an MIT-style
  license.  Please see lib/uuid/COPYING for more details for the
  license for the files comprising the libuuid library, and the source
  file headers of the libet and libss libraries for more information.
  ...

which is a little different... :-)
