Package: licensecheck Version: 3.3.9-1 Severity: wishlist licensecheck provides output like:
Files: ... files ... Copyright: ... me ... License: ... license ... FIXME It's quite awkward to fill in the FIXME's manually (and to make sure I get the right spelling so lintian doesn't yell at me). The canonical source appears to be /usr/share/perl5/Software/LicenseMoreUtils/debian-summaries.yml in libsoftware-licensemoreutils-perl - can licensecheck paste the value in from there? I've skimmed #1001634, which suggests the "FIXME"s are supposed to encourage users to check the license statement. But to be honest the more manual work I'm expected to do, the more I tend to click through without thinking. How about adding an option like `--add-license-text`, and changing `FIXME` to e.g. `Rerun with `--add-license-text if the above license is correct`? -- System Information: Debian Release: forky/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, armhf Kernel: Linux 6.16.3+deb14-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages licensecheck depends on: ii libfeature-compat-class-perl 0.07-1 ii libfeature-compat-try-perl 0.05-1 ii libio-interactive-perl 1.027-1 ii liblog-any-adapter-screen-perl 0.141-1 ii liblog-any-perl 1.717-1 ii libnamespace-clean-perl 0.27-2 ii libpath-iterator-rule-perl 1.015-2 ii libpath-tiny-perl 0.148-1 ii libpod-constants-perl 0.19-2 ii libstring-copyright-perl 0.003014-1 ii libstring-escape-perl 2010.002-3 ii libstring-license-perl 0.0.11-1 ii perl 5.40.1-6 Versions of packages licensecheck recommends: ii libregexp-pattern-license-perl 3.11.2-1 Versions of packages licensecheck suggests: ii bash-completion 1:2.16.0-7 -- no debconf information
