Details

btrfs-progs 6.5.2 changed its license from GPL2 to GPL2-only in https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/btrfs-progs/-/commit/5c0faf8d8301720723f16987c73d4aa5f898b03d

However, GPL2-only is not in /usr/share/licenses/common or /usr/share/licenses/spdx.

It should probably be "GPL-2.0-only", to match /usr/share/licenses/spdx/GPL-2.0-only.txt.

Upstream reference: https://spdx.org/licenses/GPL-2.0-only.html
