+- [PR#295](https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/cargo-about/pull/295) changes how GNU licenses are detected, previously in 0.8.3 they would be detected as their root eg. `GPL-3.0` form, which are all deprecated. As all GNU licenses use the exact same text for the different variants, one of which is deprecated, they are now always detected as the `-or-later` variant, eg. `GPL-3.0-or-later`. If this detection does not match the actual license requirement, eg. `GPL-3.0-only`, then it must be corrected by the user, as unfortunately the license detection cannot determine that due to the lack of distinction between the license texts.
