It is unclear which license is being used: there is no version 2.1 of the
Gnu General Public License. Is this referring to GPL or LGPL?

Ooops! Thanks for bringing that to my attention Vincent. Indeed, it is all
GPL v2, as the rest of the codebase (in spectlib/) and the COPYING file
indicates.

I just pushed revision 176 in the main bzr branch (lp:specto) to fix this.
