The directory in question is a Kodi "skin", or a set of media files and XML files that gets interpreted by Kodi skinning engine (like a script).
I think it will depend on the way kodi interacts with those skins. Unfortunately, I don't know kodi or its internals to tell, so I hope somebody else can give a better answer, I just wanted to clarify that the problem is not "shipping GPL-2 and GPL-3 in the same repo". In some cases, the author makes a declaration about how these plugins should be considered license-wise, and this usually helps. For example, one of the packages I maintain (procmail) has this paragraph by the author: For those of you that choose to use the GNU General Public License, my interpretation of the GNU General Public License is that no procmailrc script falls under the terms of the GPL unless you explicitly put said script under the terms of the GPL yourself. So, for the kodi case, maybe upstream can help.
If you think it is OK to keep shipping skin like it is done now, I will point to this discussion in a "Comment" subsection of mentioned d/copyright entry.
Adding a Comment section to clarify things would make sense, but I personally would not like a reference to this discussion, I am not a lawyer! :-) Thanks.
