All packages with licenses that has 1:1 counterpart in SPDX were converted. What is remaining are licenses that cannot be converted to SPDX automatically. E.g. BSD in Callaway can be converted to BSD-2-Clause or BSD-3-Clause (and several others).
We have the agreement (and FESCO decision [1]) that all remaining
packags will be converted to License-Callaway-$OLDID [2].
There is several "licenses" that are in between. For that Richard proposed to use this mapping:
Public domain -> LicenseRef-Callaway-Public-Domain
Freely redistributable without restrictions ->
LicenseRef-Callaway-Freely-redistributable-without-restrictions
Freely redistributable, no modification permitted ->
LicenseRef-Callaway-Freely-redistributable-no-modification-permitted
Copyright only -> LicenseRef-Callaway-Copyright-only
I tried to put all these rules to python script and I got the following diff:
It is big: 204kB and 8861 lines. The diff is not the tradional diff - because it would be much bigger. The file is in fomat:
package
- old license
+ new license
I expect issues there, therefore I welcome review.
So far I am aware of this:
1) the special mapping of the four "licenses" above is not correctly applied.
2) There are cases like:
lumina-desktop
- BSD
+ License-Callaway-BSD
- Apache 2.0
+ Not a valid license string in legacy syntax. Pass '--verbose'
to get full parser error.
This happen when package has first license in Callaway format (BSD) but other license is not in Callaway format (Apache 2.0). I will amend the script to not touch such cases.
3) I first thought that this:
atril- GPLv2+ and LGPLv2+ and MIT
+ GPL-2.0-or-later AND License-Callaway-LGPLv2+ AND License-Callaway-MIT
needs different handling, but then I realized it is likely what
we want. It converts GPLv2+ to only possible form:
GPL-2.0-or-later.
LGPLv2+ has more options: ['LGPL-2.0-or-later',
'LGPL-2.1-or-later'], therefore the only way is to convert it to
License-Callaway-LGPLv2+.

[2] Fesco used "LicenseRef-<something indicating Fedora
legacy>-*" but we (owners of the Change) agreed on
LicenseRef-Callaway-*
