You mean as in containing both GPL-2 and GPL-3 licensed code?
I wonder if I should put all the licenses involved (I know you can put
several licenses in that field) or some special token.
That's quite possibly another reason why Gentoo likes to have
separate ebuild for each components - no license confusion.
I will see what I can find. I cannot promise a speedy answer.
