--- Comment #13 from Nils Philippsen <nphilipp@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
Just came across this open tab 😀, so here are my 2¢:

(In reply to Akashdeep Dhar from comment #12)

As per
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_summary_and_description
😉: “The summary should be a short and concise description of the package. The
description expands upon this.”

How about (wrap to 80 chars):

--- 8< ---
Summary: Service to create bootable USB storage media
...
%description
SyncStar lets ordinary users install bootable operating systems onto USB
storage media. It is intended to be deployed on kiosk appliances, for instance
to offer this service to conference guests.

Here’s what
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/license-field/#_basic_rule has to
say: “… Unless your package includes multiple binary subpackages and you opt to
specify subpackage-specific License: tags, the Preamble License: tag expression
should be an enumeration of all licenses found in the source code of the
package, but excluding any licenses that cover material in the source code that
is not copied into the binary RPM(s), either verbatim or transformed in some
way (for example, by compilation). …”

I understand this to mean that it should be “AGPL-3.0-or-later AND MIT”.
