Package: licensecheck
Version: 3.0.41
The perl Array-IntSpan module is licensed Artistic v1 [1], but this
license is considered a non-free license [2] and not allowed in Fedora [3].
As such, Fedora won't be able to ship newer versions of licensecheck as
long as there is a dependency on this module. Could it's use please be
reconsidered? Thanks.

That's great news.
Sorry I failed to switch - I really tried several alternative libraries
without success.
Closing this bugreport as solved.
