--- Comment #3 from Maxwell G <gotmax@e.email> ---
Are you licensing this under GPLv3+, because that's the license of the ansible
package? I think it can also be argued that this is MIT, because that's
Fedora's implicit license. You might want to check with Igor Raits, the
original author of the macros/generators[1], about the licensing. Honestly, I
think it's problematic that Fedora relies on implicit licenses while still
recommending that upstream ships explicit license files, but I don't know the
full context surrounding this decision.

The other problem is that this package does not depend on any package that
provides /usr/bin/ansible-galaxy. Currently, every supported Fedora version has
both `ansible` 2.9 and `ansible-core` (they conflict with each other), but Epel
7 and 8 only have the former. As you know, EL 9 itself already contains
`ansible-core`. I think this package should depend on ansible-core wherever
possible. Then, we can have collections BR `ansible-packaging` and get rid of
the current `BuildRequires:  (ansible >= 2.9.10 or ansible-core >= 2.11.0)`
which defaults to ansible. I would suggest something like this:

```
%if 0%{?fedora} >= 34 || 0%{?rhel} >= 9
Requires: ansible-core >= 2.11.0
%else
Requires: ansible >= 2.9.10
```

We will also need to address the generated requires.
