The only GPLv2 file i see is  spectro/filmread.c and this merely says

  * This material is licenced under the GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE :-
  * see the License2.txt file for licencing details.

According to the licensing guidelines

  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing

"A GPL or LGPL licensed package that lacks any statement of what version that 
 it's licensed under in the source code/program output/accompanying docs is
 technically licensed under *any* version of the GPL or LGPL, not just the 
 version in whatever COPYING file they include."

So, IMHO,  spectro/filmread.c is under *any* version of the GPL and thus
trivially compatible with the GPLv3 used by the rest of the code. Even if it can
be argued that it is GPLv2+, then that is still compatible with GPLv3+

As for the cgats / icc directory stuff, I'd recommend mailing the
fedora-legal-list at redhat.com with text of the license to confirm whether it can
be classed as 'BSD'. 

Yes, BSD-Like is not valid - I should have just said  "GPLv3+ and BSD" for the
License: tag.
