It will. Previously, it was licensed under GPLv2 + LGPLv2 with Apple

On the other hand, libgcc switched to GPLv3+ with exceptions (but those
exceptions do not restore GPLv2 compatibility), so under this strict
interpretation, we could not ship any GPLv2 userspace software anyway.
So I wonder if we can just declare CUPS a system library and move on.
(It would be a different matter if CUPS itself depended on GPLv2
components. I have not checked that.)
Thanks,
