"AGPLv3 with exceptions"

[Jeroen van Meeuwen]

Hi,

I logged bug #563308[1] arguing that the RPM License: header "AGPLv3
with exceptions" wasn't accepted by rpmlint, and Ville Skytta mentioned
that the Licensing page[2] on the fedoraproject.org wiki was
authoritative for rpmlint.

Following the Discussion topic[3] on that very same page, I hereby
submit for your consideration the inclusion of RPM License header
"AGPLv3 with exceptions".

I understand that in this case, it's not as straightforward as with some
of the other license, so I guess it's good to discuss here.

The License: header we speak about here has been accepted in the case of
Zarafa[4] package.

Thank you in advance,

Kind regards,

Jeroen van Meeuwen
