Bug Description

Ubuntu Edgy knot 3

Seen in AisleRiot (2.16.0), and confirmed in SameGNOME

AisleRiot 2.16.0
Help ->About AisleRiot
License tab contains the text "GPL 2+" (only) rather than any preamble or sentence or anything.

I presume a boilerplate is due to be added there but has been missed.

gnome-games source -> aisleriot -> menu.c (line 135) == "license", "GPL 2+",
probably a link to the GPL 2+ license would suffice here (upstream?)

Everyone of the applications in the gnome-games has the same license info. The license info is in there, as it relates to GPL2+.

Instead of rejecting this, I am going to wishlist it. I agree a little more info other than GPL2+ would be helpful, not everyone knows what that means I guess.

Hello :) This has been fixed by showing a proper GPL2+ preamble with game name correctly for all games in the license dialog. It will show up in the 2.17.x development branch.
