[PATCH v2 0/7] Relicense GPL programs for compatibility with OpenSSL

[Uwe Kleine-König]

Hello,

this series addresses the problem that binaries licensed under plain GPL
and linked to OpenSSL cannot be distributed. To allow this a special
exception by the copyright holders is needed[1].

The changes since (implicit) v1 sent with
Message-Id: 20200915205417.15484-1-u.kleine-koenig at pengutronix.de:

 - added acks
 - rename OpenSSL-exception to LicenseRef-OpenSSL-exception as suggested by
   Roland
 - s/GPL-2.0+/GPL-2.0-or-later/ in rsatoc; similar changes also in the
   license text copied from Linux to not use the names deprecated by
   SPDX.
 - dropped Eric Bénard, his address isn't working any more. Tried to contact
   via other means, no feedback yet.

[1] I'm not a lawyer but I know that software distributed by Debian
    requires this.

Uwe Kleine-König (7):
  scripts/spdxcheck: fix usage of non-existing variables
  LICENSES: add used licenses to make spdxcheck happy
  scripts: convert imx-image and mxsimage to SPDX
  LICENSES: add OpenSSL exception
  scripts/rsatoc: relicense to allow distribution of binary linked with
    OpenSSL
  scripts/imx-image: relicense to allow distribution of binary linked
    with OpenSSL
  scripts/mxsimage: relicense to allow distribution of binary linked
    with OpenSSL
