Description Nanouck 2012-07-06 15:38:07 UTC

gzip has changed its license between 1.3.12 and 1.3.13 see gzip-1.3.12/COPYING (GPL-v2) and gzip-1.3.13/COPYING (GPL-v3)

since ebuild and gentoo portage is my Reference for this kind of information, I would notify you that gzip-1.4.ebuild (1.11) and gzip-1.5.ebuild (1.1) keep LICENSE="GPL-2"


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
NA
Actual Results:  
LICENSE="GPL-2"

Expected Results:  
LICENSE="GPL-3"
