Problem

  • Our code is not GPL-2.0, but GPL-2.0-or-later.
  • The license file does not indicate that it is a text file.

Proposed solution

  1. Replace options GPL-2.0 and GPL-3.0 with GPL-2.0-or-later.
  2. Download license document from Linux Foundation's license archive instead: https://spdx.org/licenses/
    • Or skip the downloading and commit two ready license files instead, GPL and MIT (alternatively ISC).
  3. Rename template file to LICENSE.txt.

https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/#GPL also has the license documents and is the original source, of course. I don't know off-hand if there is a difference in the license text between 2.0 and 2.0+.
