asking to make sure that i somewhat understand. The point is that licenses can allow for literal readings or equity readings, ie. the spirit of the law. On its face, debian is fine as it makes it easy to set up zfs but is separately distributing two binaries. Canonical is distributing one binary with the zfs linked inside of the kernel, which a literal reading can allow. However the equity reading disallows as although all source code can be released, it must be under gplv2. Therefore, we are in a holding pattern to see whether stakeholders will take the literal or equity reading of the license and will proceed accordingly?
