The PSF-2 license is detected as the GPL. For example: https://salsa.debian.org/cryptocoin-team/electrum/-/blob/master/electrum/_vendor/distutils/LICENSE?ref_type=heads This file contains a number of related licenses, but none of them are the the GPL.
Quoting Soren Stoutner (2025-02-21 03:44:10) There are two bugs here: a) licensecheck fails to detect license fulltext PSF-2 b) licensecheck misdetects "released under the GPL" as a license grant Of those, I consider a) to be important, and b) to be only minor. I have rephrased the bugreport to track only a) (and also corrected a typo in the license shortname PSF-2). Thanks for reporting, - Jonas
