Package: libsoftware-license-perl Version: 0.103010-3 Tags: upstream Software::License::Artistic_1_0 has an option to include or leave out the 'sometimes-omitted "aggregation clause"', which is claimed to read
8. The name of the Copyright Holder may not be used to endorse or promote products derived from this software without specific prior written permission. However, according to spdx.org [1], there's a sometimes-included clause 8 that reads 8.Aggregation of this Package with a commercial distribution is always permitted provided that the use of this Package is embedded; that is, when no overt attempt is made to make this Package's interfaces visible to the end user of the commercial distribution. Such use shall not be construed as a distribution of this Package. Given the reference to "aggregation" in the clause name in the Software::License::Artistic_1_0 documentation, it seems probable that the spdx.org information is correct and that leaving out the "endorsing" clause as above is actually a bug.
