I've fixed the s/LGPLv2+/LGPLv2.1+/ issue in the license information,
and applied. However, it is worth noting that at some point, we will be
forced to remove the packages for software that is unmaintained
upstream. We can keep it for a while, but just like recently libgtk3
was bumped to a version that requires OpenGL because the latest
versions of libgtk3 require it, we will have to do the same for Qt5 if
that's the decision of upstream. People who want something that works
without OpenGL should work with upstream to resolve this.

Thanks!

Thomas
