Hmmm, now it becomes funny ;-)

The default SUSE specfile header says "the same license as for the 
pristine package itself" - so actually a large portion of the spec files 
in openSUSE _are_ already GPL-licensed (on my system rpm -qa gives me 
about 30% "GPL v2+").

And now you tell me GPL isn't a good / recommended license for 
specfiles? ;-)

(That said: it's been a while since I read the GPL - which detail are 
you talking about?)
