I just noticed that meta.license attributes specified using
stdenv.lib.licenses.* don't work, because meta attributes are not allowed to be
attribute sets. (They can be strings, lists of strings or integers.) Thus, for
instance, licenses specified in this way don't show up in nix-env -q --meta
--xml or in Hydra build pages.
What to do about this? For now we should probably change the licenses in
pkgs/lib/licenses.nix to be strings.

be
attribute sets. (They can be strings, lists of strings or integers.)
How about attribute sets where all values are strings? It sounds like it
is an requirement to easily generate a string representation of the mata
attribute.
Or would it be possible to use the fullName or ShortName as string value
of the attribute set?
Thus, for
instance, licenses specified in this way don't show up in nix-env -q --meta
