I will not do anything to progress faster, because `fedora-license-data` has enough issues (and mainly > flow of new issues). FWIW, here are two other possible metrics: $ rg -l '^License:.*(AND|OR|WITH)' | wc -l 394 This assumes that packages with SPDX identifiers will have uppercase boolean operators if they are multi licensed. It of course doesn't cover single licensed SPDX packages. I was also curious how many packages are automatically compliant due to identifiers that are the same between Callaway and SPDX. This yields a much larger number. $ rg -l '^License:\s*(MIT|Unlicense|Beearware|WTFPL|MIT-0|Zed|0BSD|OpenSSL|Ruby|PostgreSQL)$' | wc -l 4636 (There are probably more cases. I didn't bother to iterate over the entire license list to find all of the cases of shared license identifiers. I did this by hand.) Maybe I'll write a script to get more accurate metrics if I find some spare time, but as you said, there are more important issues to deal with. -- Maxwell G (@gotmax23) Pronouns: He/Him/His
