One point of concern - I'm not sure that the rpminspect license
data has a full compare of SPDX-Fedora identifiers.
I'm not sure if David Cantrell is on this list, so copying him as he would know.
When it's complete the new license database will have the full compare, so that would
be the better data to use.
When the transition is unknow - either because we are missing something or because the
maintainer has typo in original
string - user will get the warning in the style "you should investigate".
To expand on the category issue (e.g., Fedora's MIT, BSD, GPLvX with exceptions) we
might want to explain what "you
should investigate" means. That is, one would need to find and look at the actual
license text in that package and
compare it to licenses on the SPDX License List (there is a cool browser plug-in that
makes it easy to do this) and
then update the spec file license field accordingly.
Agree.
