Osamu,
Okay I've installed it and had a quick look. It looks like a more generalised version of dh-make-perl. I'll give it a go when I next try packaging a non-Perl package. Unfortunately I am pretty sure I am at the limit of what I can contribute to Debian.

Interesting.  Where is it?
https://packages.debian.org/sid/main/license-reconcile
(My "debmake -k" does similar.)
Unlike you, my script (debmake -cc) bunch year into a single range for
simplicity.

(The command is "debmake".  Options to use are -k and -cc.  It is in python)

I can't find what you are referring to here.

https://packages.debian.org/stretch/debmake
  (command package)
https://packages.qa.debian.org/d/debmake-doc.html
  (documentation and license test corps.)

You can install them to stable by dpkg -i :-)

Just to reiterate my idea is that converting from source to DEP-5 is hard.

Yah... tell me.  Bunching up the exact same license text ... I did it
though.

So you give up on that and concentrate on reconciling the two instead.
Obviously the initial conversion has to be done manually or at best

Please not complete manual work....

semi-manually, but subsequently it is a small burden to keep everything in
sync.

semi-manually is good

So bunching the years is not a big concern in my code since that is a one
off actviity.

OK.  I did it too.

Osamu

PS: Licensecheck has advantage over debmake -cc since it scan not just
first match but it uses full file scan.  Debmake focusing on clean
template for DEP-5 I did not do so.
