The license fulltext itself does not cover any work, so cannot decide if
it is -only or -or-later.

If you only needed what --shortname-scheme=spdx then yes, makes sense to
close this bugreport.

If that other issue you wanted to open another bugreport for is the
above about GPL-3, then please first check if covered in either of bugs
#1052259 or #1081421.

You might also be interested in bug#950363 :-)
