--- Comment #6 from Kevin Kofler kevin@tigcc.ticalc.org 2009-08-25 16:52:25 EDT --- Shipping the GPLv3 with a software which is GPLv2+ is legal. You can specify any minimum version, it doesn't have to be the one you ship. You're only required to ship a copy of any (one) version of the GPL which is valid for your software, not all of them. So, I don't see any licensing issue there, it's safe to mark this as GPLv2+ if the license header says so.
Plus, are you sure the parts of kdebase-workspace which are being used are not actually LGPL or GPLv2+? GPL v2 only is deprecated in KDE, most stuff is not actually v2 only. But this isn't really relevant as the code is GPLv2+ anyway.
