Licence problem

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hello, 

I want to make autokey avaible for Opensuse.
But there are some legal problems.

The problems are : 

However, the only licenses found in the package are GPLv2+ licenses - thisisn't 
a problem per se, as the GPLv2 "or later" allows migration of the license to 
e.g. GPLv3.

However, there is no COPYING file in the package - either for GPLv2 or for 
GPLv3.

Could you update the license information by (possibly) updating the license 
headers of the files to reflect the GPLv3 and by appending a GPLv3 
license(http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt) as COPYING (etc).

Thank you.
I will wait for the next tarball with the "new" licence.

Thanks for the solution.
Do you know if there is in the near future there is a release of a new tarball 
or can I better use the SVN version.

I am just waiting for the Debian packager to clear up an issue about the 
packaging license - once that is done I will have a bugfix release ready to go, 
probably in a few days' time.
