Does the license files of an installed foo package need to reside under
/usr/share/licenses/foo/ or can they reside anywhere and the packager just needs to ensure
they're installed?
The question comes out from a review of a python package [1]: since python package already
installs license files properly marked as such into the dist-info dir of the package, do
we have to install them using the %license tag also? I would expect them to be under
/usr/share/licenses but there's nothing in the packaging guidelines about this.
