Emacs is GPL3+ (according to guix show).  This extension of Emacs is
GPL2-only (according to the package definition).  Seems like the author
intended it to be free software, but accidentally made a license
incompatibility?  

Additionally, IIRC, the GPL has some requirements about including a
copy of the GPL.

I assume these issue would be easy to correct by contacting upstream.

I looked a little further and saw
<https://github.com/xahlee/xah-fly-keys/issues/28>, so I guess that the
.el is just a little out-of-date.

Greetings,
Maxime.
