HI again,
I want to package a software, that uses GNU GPL version 2 but with an exception.

At the begining of the COPYING file is this:


*********************************************************************
  As a special exception, you have permission to link this program
  with the CGAL library and distribute executables, as long as you
  follow the requirements of the GNU GPL in regard to all of the
  software in the executable aside from CGAL.
*********************************************************************

		    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
		       Version 2, June 1991
             ...full text of the license follows...


What should I do about that?

Thank you very much.
