What is the actual license?

[QSchulz]

LICENSE file contains GPL-2 license.
README says GPL-2+.

From the comment at the top of source code files, I think it should be GPL-2+.

Desktop distros don't have a consensus:
https://archlinux.pkgs.org/rolling/archlinux-community-aarch64/pcsc-tools-1.5.7-1-aarch64.pkg.tar.xz.html (GPL)
https://centos.pkgs.org/8/epel-x86_64/pcsc-tools-1.5.3-3.el8.x86_64.rpm.html (GPL-2+)
https://freebsd.pkgs.org/13/freebsd-amd64/pcsc-tools-1.5.7.txz.html (GPL-2)
https://opensuse.pkgs.org/tumbleweed/opensuse-oss-aarch64/pcsc-tools-1.5.7-1.5.aarch64.rpm.html (GPL-2+ AND GPL-3+)

I don't know where openSUSE got the idea that some code is GPL-3+.

Can we settle this once and for all and have consistency across files :)?
Thanks!

README file is correct.
LICENSE file is correct. I don't think you can find a license for the GPL-2+.

What exactly do you expect from me?

I shouldn't have opened an issue on a Friday, everybody knows that :) So yeah, I was under the impression that the " or later" part should have been part of the terms and conditions in the LICENCE file itself, but does not look like it.

It's confusing to have a license file that applies both to GPL-2 AND GPL-2-or-later and the difference is to be made in source code, but that's not a project issue here.

Sorry for the noise, will think twice about opening issues again :)

Have a nice day!
