Subject: [OE-core][PATCH 09/22] gcc: Update license
Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2026 12:31:19 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260714190405.3328796-10-JPEWhacker@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260714190405.3328796-1-JPEWhacker@gmail.com>

GPL-3.0-with-GCC-exception is a deprecated license ID, so replace it
with "GPL-3.0-or-later WITH GCC-exception-3.1".

Also, the LICENSE expression in gcc.inc appears to be incomplete,
missing GPL-2.0-or-later, LGPL-2.1-or-later, and LGPL-3.0-or-later, even
though the checksums for their corresponding license files are clearly
checked in LIC_FILES_CHKSUM.
