It's still not clear to me, in the ticket it is said "%license is mandatory", but doesn't %license macro copy files under /usr/share/licenses in addition to adding the tag?
As a personal note, I don't like this solution, as you need to inspect the built RPM to check that the license files are really installed, while explicitly set them in the specfile is much more straightforward.
