      This is a clone of issue RHEL-127524 to use for version rhel-9.8

      Original description:
      We should update the RPM License: tag and backport an upstream patch that adds the GPL, version 3 to the source code.

      There is one Hurd file (not built into the library) that is licensed under the GPL, version 3, not the LGPL.

      The patch-git implementation is licensed under the GPL, version 3. Same for scripts/move-if-change.

      Some autoconf scripts are licensed under GPL-3.0-or-later WITH Autoconf-exception-generic-3.0, specifically scripts/config.guess and scripts/config.sub.

      Texinfo is licensed under GPL-3.0-or-later WITH Texinfo-exception.

      As far as I can tell, these clarifications do not concern source code that is built into the binaries we ship.
