I didn't notice until now, but this license specification doesn't seem
to be correct. For example,
https://github.com/jackaudio/jack2/blob/master/linux/alsa/JackAlsaAdapter.cpp
is under GPLv2+. Parts of jack2 seem to be under LGPL, some other parts
under GPL. It should be explained in the <pkg>_LICENSE specification,
with something just as (purely invented example, I haven't analyzed
jack2) :

FOO_LICENSE = GPLv2+ (this part and this part), LGPLv2.1+ (this other part)

Thanks,

Thomas
