Here's a list of packages from Fedora Raw Hide which link against GnuTLS
and have license tags indicating GPLv2-only licensing:
aria2-0.12.0-5.fc10.src.rpm - GPLv2
climm-0.6.3-1.fc10.src.rpm - GPLv2
cups-1.3.8-5.fc10.src.rpm - GPLv2
ekg2-0.2-0.4.rc1.fc10.src.rpm - GPLv2
gobby-0.4.6-1.fc10.src.rpm - GPLv2
hardinfo-0.4.2.3-6.fc10.src.rpm - GPLv2
jd-2.0.1-0.2.beta080901.fc10.src.rpm - GPLv2
snort-2.8.1-5.fc10.src.rpm - GPLv2
sobby-0.4.4-5.fc10.src.rpm - GPLv2
xfce4-mailwatch-plugin-1.0.1-10.fc10.src.rpm - GPLv2
(Note that this list is not necessarily complete since it won't include
packages which have not yet had their License tags audited.)
