Their included jq.spec says:

but that is contradicted by the contents of COPYING, none of which matches BSD 
0-4 +/- variants but starts with basic MIT, and the rest states CC-BY-3.0, dtoa, 
and ICU, which SPDX have assigned as named.

Fedora has old stedolan v1.6, but even that included the IBM ICU decNumber 
package, not the alternative GCC sources which were under GPL.

Thank you, and Achim!

And sorry for being so grumpy about it. The whole license thing is just a joy
suck. Thanks for your help.

Hi, Andrew et al.,

Debian uses the following in its /usr/share/doc/jq/copyright file:

  License: MIT
  License: CC-BY-3.0
  License: Expat
  License: GPL-2.0+

That might help...

Yours truly,
