Various parts of this package are covered by various licenses, all of which are
already OK for Fedora except the "Whatever" license:

     Whatever License

     THIS SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED 'AS-IS', WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED
     WARRANTY.  IN NO EVENT WILL THE AUTHORS BE HELD LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES
     ARISING FROM THE USE OF THIS SOFTWARE.

     Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim or modified
     copies of this license document.

     Permission is granted to anyone to use this software for any purpose,
     including commercial applications, and to alter it and redistribute it
     freely.

I have posted a request to the Fedora legal mailing list about it.

Tom Callaway posted to the Fedora legal mailing list that the "Whatever"
license is acceptable as an extremely permissive variant of the MIT license,
and should be marked as such.  I've updated the License tag in the spec
accordingly:
