Which is conveniently on our licensing pages as MIT:

"GPLv3+ and MIT" if the MIT-licensed data files are included directly
into the package; I suppose just GPLv3+ if they are somehow compiled
into a binary with the GPL code.  If the former, also include a
comment in the spec indicating which files are under which license.
See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/LicensingGuidelines for
more info.

It is only mandatory to include the license text in the package if it
is included within the upstream tarball.
