--- Comment #3 from Tom "spot" Callaway <tcall...@redhat.com> ---
Okay, that is a different situation. Copyright has not been abandoned (or
expired) on this work, the author has merely granted a sort of meta-license
which permits for any OSI approved license to be applied.

Technically, "Public Domain" is not an OSI approved license, so it is not a
valid choice (though, I suspect it was the maintainer's attempt to quantify
that weird meta-license).

The easy fix is to change the License field to be something permissive and OSI
approved. I would suggest changing the spec to:

# Technically, the license allows us to choose any OSI approved license, so we 
# choose MIT for maximal compatibility.
License: MIT
