Seems to be multiple issues (different from originally reported), all of them solved by now: * Detection of BSD license was previously too "greedy" assuming that standard boilerplate disclaimer would be BSD if not detected as something else * Detection of Public Domain previously missed some patterns Current licensecheck 3.0.46 properly detects _only_ Public Domain for above sha1.c file, which seems correct. Current licensecheck 3.0.46 also detects multiple licenses in same file (but that did not seem to really be the issue here after all). Not sure when exactly these issues were fixed...
