I looked at your package, and what surprised me is that you patched the Cargo.toml file to "correct" the upstream license metadata, given that the upstream project has rejected the change.
The downstream patch to the crate metadata is only there because we use crate metadata to automatically collect licenses of dependencies for statically linked binaries. I.e. the crate metadata should reflect the license of the Fedora package, otherwise the method to collect licenses of dependencies would be wrong.
Ah, now I understand!
