Is GNU Arch (ie. tla-1.3.5) licensed under "GPL version 2 only" or "GPL version 2 or (at your option) any later version" ? The Savannah project page (http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnu-arch) mentions "GNU General Public License v2 or later", while the src/COPYING file in the 1.3.5 release tarball mentions "...GNU General Public License, version 2,..." The COPYING file is a copy of the GNU GPL, it doesn't state what the license is of the whole package. You have to look at each file, and not at the actual license terms to see what the actual terms are of the package.
