Thanks, Andy, sorry for the long pause - the license was identified and cleared by Fedora Legal in August as:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing/Henry_Spencer_Reg-Ex_Library_Licens...
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/legal@lists.fedoraproject.org/...
I had a look at the links, compared the license texts and indeed it's 1:1 the Henry Spencer license. I'm glad we have a license tag for this, but it's a shame the MIT or BSD license was not used instead.
[1] particularly since it is unlikely we can ever ship nix properly in Fedora, unless we do what Debian does and ship the binary without setting up the system /nix directories.
Yes, I don't think this would work and/or be useful. "editline" definitely will be, though!
The rest looks good now. Package approved!
