Why is this under GPLv3? this makes it overcomplicated on redistribution!

Me and a friend are at the begin of creating a linux distro and wanted to use one of this themes, could you please explain how to do this?

I mean, while this is GPLv3 and literally everything that we want to use (even the linux kernel) is licensed under GPLv2. And i read that this two licenses aren't compatible... So how should we use this? are we by your opinion even allowed to use this in a public distribution?

Please explain this!

ok i'll close this for now as it seems that this is considered an "agregate" and as so allowed if we put the os under GPLv3
