I modelled this on the QA checks in insane.bbclass because that appeared to
be the most likely to be an acceptable way to do it. I'd be happy to use
the same variables, although that does raise the question of whether
license.bbclass needs to inherit from insane.bbclass or those variables
need moving somewhere else (see below).

There are many other warnings reported by license.bbclass. Many of them
feel like errors to me. I'd be happy to have a single switch that converted
them all to errors, but I haven't tried to do so to see what problems we'd
run into.

Where would be the best place to put this function? A new qa.bbclass that
can be inherited by both license.bbclass and insane.bbclass?

Did you have any particular cleanups and refactorings in mind? I must admit
that I was surprised by the long list in a single variable assigned with
?=. It means that anyone overriding the variable won't benefit from
newly-added checks automatically.

The only alternative mechanism I came up with was something like:

 QA_CHECK[libdir] = "warn"
 QA_CHECK[dev-so] = "error"
 QA_CHECK[mime] = "ignore"

and then let recipes and configurations override individual checks as they
wish.

Thanks.

Mike.
