What about using the full path names for the symbolic dependencies? 
Using only the md5sum still has the risc of ending up with dangling 
symlinks in case the licenses package ever reorganises it's directory 
structure.

BTW, how does the license package approach fit with licenses that 
require that the license text be included in any binary distribution? 
As packages can be downloaded and installed without also downloading 
the licenses package, people could view this as a license violation.
