Thank you for both your replies.

We know the breakdown of the licenses in the different files
(`licensecheck` provides us with it, and is run as part of Fedora
review). The query primarily is whether the licensing of the various
individual files makes the "effective" license to be GPLv3+ or if it
should be noted to be GPLv2+ and GPLv3+.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:FAQ?rd=Licensing/FAQ#What_is_.22effective_license.22_and_do_I_need_to_know_that_for_the_License:_tag.3F

The licensecheck output from the review is also attached.

In this case the effective license would be GPLv3+ since the GPLv2+ code
becomes GPLv3+ when combined with GPLv3+ code.

I think you should use 'GPLv3+' in the License tag.

Thanks,
