We are aware of this. See commit 78237df5. > So does it even play any role when the GPL lines are not contained in some > files? As you just saw yourself: yes, it does play a role. Just by placing a file with some incompatible license in a directory with a GPL "COPYING" file doesn't change the rights you have with the oroginal code... > Isn't it enough to have the licence of the whole project mentioned once? As you see: no.
