The copyrifht file talk about GPL without specification, "This is free software, placed under the terms of the GNU General Public License, as published by the Free Software Foundation."
but in the package's COPYING file we can read it's released under GPL_v2 or later.

from http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#OriginalBSD (Note: on the preceding link, the original BSD license is listed in the UCB/LBL section. This license is also sometimes called the “4-clause BSD license”.) This is a simple, permissive non-copyleft free software license with a serious flaw: the “obnoxious BSD advertising clause”. The flaw is not fatal; that is, it does not render the software non-free. But it does cause practical problems, including incompatibility with the GNU GPL.
