I have a very quick question about Wireshark License.

Is it GPLv2 or GPLv3? From the information I collected from webpages, it
looks like it is up to the user to choose GPLv2 or GPLv3. Can someone
confirm this?

GPLv2:

To quote COPYING file [1] ,,Wireshark is distributed under the GNU GPLv2. There are no restrictions
on its use.''
