Forever is a long time. If you refer to the file system location, that's part of maintaining a package. I suspect you mean the GPL version. Typically licensing is "GPL v2 or later", which this (I presume) will track. If you want to specificly use v2 only, a qustion comes up that I don't know the answer to. Is the "or later" clause part of the GPL? -Jon
