Description Ian Stakenvicius (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

The init script(s) provided in FILESDIR for app-crypt/trousers has a license of GPL-2 but GPL-2 isn't within the LICENSE variable of the ebuild(s):

files/tcsd.initd has license line:
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
... and is used by the following ebuilds:
trousers-0.3.6.ebuild:LICENSE="CPL-1.0"

There are two options here -- either LICENSE in the ebuilds should be appended with GPL-2 to cover the init script, or the init script should be relicensed so that it is covered by current LICENSE (this one is probably the preferred resolution).  See also bug 425702 .
