That said, if you end up in a situation where you (the packager) feels
strongly that the upstream separation of copyright holders and license
text would somehow cause the license text to be incomplete, feel free to
either bring those specifics to this email list, or tag them both as
%license and explain it in a comment in the spec file.
Thanks, that answers my second question. Then I'll continue including
lists of authors in the same subpackage as the license, but with %doc,
unless I come across some really special case.
