I will love to see more usage of this tag, but I believe the documentatin has to be updated first. PR for packaging guidelines and legal doc is welcome.

Here it comes https://gitlab.com/fedora/legal/fedora-legal-docs/-/merge_requests/306



Thank you for the PR, because this is hard one. I think that in ideal world, the PR should be worded in a way that:

1) The `SourceLicense` tag is always used and it fully describes the content of the SRPM, i.e. it should contain all licenses which would be identified by some (ideal) scanner

2) The `License` tag would be used in cases when the resulting (sub) package has different license from the `SourceLicense` (e.g. build scripts are not part of the resulting binary obviously).

The question is if we can get from the current state to the state I proposed above.
