Do you mean the %description tag? I am opposed to this. "License: GPL" should be considered enough to provide an informative overview over a package's licensing. > While searching for tags used in the License field for Extras I got this > result: > 1 GPL version 2 or newer > 1 GPL version 2 or later. > 1 GPL version 2 or later > 1 GPLv2 IMO, all these above are superfluous and should be changed into "GPL", because current "GPL" always implies "GPLv2 or later/newer".
