[Bug 1271160] [NEW] License version mismatch

[Jegan Chandru]

Public bug reported:

Description:	Ubuntu 13.04
Release:	13.04

libcloog-ppl1:
  Installed: 0.16.1-1
  Candidate: 0.16.1-1
  
I found some packages seems to have the license mismatch. For example, the copyright of package libcloog-ppl1 tells us to see /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL whereas its the symlink to GPL-3. But the original license version is LGPL-2.1. It seems that nobody updated the copyright file. This gives wrong information and creates confusion about the package license. This is the same scenario for many packages.

** Affects: cloog-ppl (Ubuntu)
