Well, the COPYING file says:

The Library is distributed under the terms of the GNU Library General
Public License version 2 (found in /usr/share/common-licenses/LGPL-2
on debian systems).

but all of the files in the libfileutils-ocaml directory say:

(*   This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or        *)
(*   modify it under the terms of the GNU Library General Public          *)
(*   License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either         *)
(*   version 2 of the License, or any later version ; with the OCaml      *)
(*   static compilation exception.                                        *)

and the statements on the code always win unless, of course, there is an issue
with combining them which would somehow limit the license.

Of course, someone should introduce a clue to upstream about this, but in the
meantime it really does look like LGPLv2+ to me.

Honestly the issue of a plus or not isn't something worth holding this package
up over; you can fix it when you check in.

APPROVED
