I find the most time consuming task in the review process is the license check. I use a combination of find/head/grep commands to try and determine if some of the source files have differing licenses to the stated one in the spec. None of my methods guarantee 100% license detection, given the sheer number of licenses out there, although if we could consolidate all of the methods reviewers use for this we would have a nifty tool indeed. Not sure if this is something which should be part of this package or another entirely?
fyi, rpmdevtools rpm includes a handy 'licensecheck' tool. -- rex -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
