I am using grub 2.02. When I attempt to load a module (for testing purposes), the loader fails, with an error " incompatible license". This is one of those obscure problems which seems to be related to version control issues. I haver tried the following licenses, and have also tried using no license.

MODULE_LICENSE("Dual BSD/GPL");
MODULE_LICENSE("GPLv2+");
MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");
MODULE_LICENSE("GPLv3+");
MODULE_LICENSE("GPLv3");

Can anyone tell me what is the magic word to get rid of this error message?

The macro is called GRUB_MOD_LICENSE, not MODULE_LICENSE.

Additionally, the licenses considered valid are (as extracted from grub-core/kernel/dl.c):

  • GPLv3
  • GPLv3+
  • GPLv2+

By the way - GRUB 2.02 is not released: the latest tag available is grub-2.02-beta2
