So which is it, version 2 exactly, or version 2-or-any-later-version? And why is this module not LGPL like gtk+ itself?

Well, the whole of PackageKit is GPLv2+, except for the web plugin which is dual licensed to MPL as it uses some of the SDK code. It's just the same as everything else. Why do you think the module should be LGPL? Richard.

The first line introduces a conflict with the other text in that it specifies version 2 exactly, while the text below allows 2-or-later. Most other projects simply copy the stock text without adding this first 'summary' line.
