Hello
Ok. But still only to an older (potentially) GPLv3-incompatible
version? I acquired gnome-icon-theme from debian whose copyright

only mentions GPLv2.
Yes, gnome-themes is currently LGPL v2 only. I don't know much
about the
GPL v3 licensing issues, but I'm guessing that doesn't really help
with this
specific problem... I was really just saying that it wasn't the
first time
people had wondered about icon theme licensing, and not come to any
firm
conclusions.
Ok. You say *Lesser* GPL. Just FYI: I have gnome-themes and
gnome-icon-theme version 2.26 installed, and in the debian copyright
for these two packages, it still says GPLv2 (only) (Not LPGL, but
GPL).
Hmm... gnome-themes changed to LGPL on 2003-08-11, according to its
ChangeLog:
<http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gnome-themes/tree/ChangeLog.pre-git>
And here's its current COPYING file:
<http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gnome-themes/tree/COPYING>
Cheeri,
