--- Comment #28 from Alec Leamas <[email protected]> ---
Hm... As for ocserv, I think upstream has confirmed that the proper license for
those files should be GPLv2+. This makes it possible to patch the files, with
the reference above in a comment.

The easiest is perhaps to add some sed patching in %prep. Don't forget the
reference, patching licenses is no walk in the park ;) That's one license less.

While we're on it: Although the GL makes it necessary to list all the licenses,
you can still promote things as long as the license allows. E. g., you can
promote LGPLv2.1 to GPLv2+ according to specific LGPL rules. The simple way is
to list the files as LGPLv2.1  in the break-down, but add a note that you
promote those to GPLv2+ in the same break-down. This makes it possible to
exclude LGPLv2.1 from the License: tag. One less...
