Most packages won't need it, and for those that do, it will make the task for whomever is auditing the package (re: me) much simpler.
Hmmm would it be simpler to just have an included PACKAGE-LICENSES file that you would then audit? That would keep the SPEC file from getting overly ugly in some cases, and make your job a lot simpler by giving out a tool that they could check to see if something matches/doesnt match the PACKAGE-LICENSES. We could then share that with our friends at Debian etc unless they have such a tool that we could use. -- Stephen J Smoogen. -- CSIRT/Linux System Administrator How far that little candle throws his beams!
