[poky] gnutls-2.12.14-r3.1 - strange rpm names yocto

So for example, in the situation when I have a build from which I want
to exclude GPLv3 code from, but gnutls is added to the build as a
dependency of some package, and the licensing of gnutls is as follows:

LICENSE = "GPLv3+ & LGPLv2.1+"
LICENSE_${PN} = "LGPLv2.1+"
LICENSE_${PN}-xx = "LGPLv2.1+"
LICENSE_${PN}-bin = "GPLv3+"
LICENSE_${PN}-extra = "GPLv3+"
LICENSE_${PN}-openssl = "GPLv3+"

then my understanding is either don't include any code from gnutls as
it's double licence or just include the non GPLv3 rpms (the first and
second rpm). Am I right?
