Description Hans 2011-09-16 19:46:37 UTC

Much of the code of dnsmasq (but not all of it) is GPL-2 or, optionally, GPL-3.
Currently, the ebuilds list only GPL-2. IMHO, this should be changed.
This is valid for all versions in the current tree (>=2.52), I just checked this.

Thanks for your attention.
