Ah so sorry, I do have some memory here, but I forgot to mention it
later.

Excerpt from the content of GPLv2:

... 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices
that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give
any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with
the Program.

So maybe better not to delete this line? I dunno..

Thanks for pointing this out!
