Hi Kotrappa, It is very common for people to use ‘(c)’ in a copyright statement, so that’s why fossology flags this as a possible copyright. Of course, in this case it is a false positive. Fossology tends to error on the side of reporting possible copyrights (and licenses) rather than risk missing them.
This is a fossology issue, not spdx.
