My personal interest stems from having forked okular for my own project
(https://github.com/jschultz/okular-tagging),

You've relicensed all of the code to GPL-3 ?

Not really thought about it, just used GPL-3 as a default licence.

Not sure that's illegal but for sure makes cherry-picking changes to the real
Okular much harder.

Oh, that certainly isn't my intention. Trying to make sense of GPL's FAQ: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html Am I correct that Okular is licensed under GPLv2 /only/? If that's the case then perhaps I am not allowed to use GPLv3 for my fork, and should change to GPLv2 or "GPLv2 or later".

Cheers, Jonathan
