"superceded" is not the same as "is textually and therefore legally the same". So I would recommend that you run wdiff. If they just changed the name of the license, then yes it's the same. If there are changes in terms, then we should add it separately. (I'm assuming you have an actual package that references the Library GPL 2.0, and that you've already checked with upstream that this isn't just confusion and they don't mean regular LGPL.)
