Hi all, when working with different tools I noticed a difference in handling the All licenses information from files field ( https://spdx.github.io/spdx-spec/v2.3/package-information/#714-all-licenses-information-from-files-field ). The specification explicitly states the following:
> > The relationship between licenses (i.e., conjunctive, disjunctive) is not > specified in this field - it is simply a listing of all licenses found However, it is specified that this field should either contain NONE, NOASSERTION or a SPDX License Expression according to Annex D. ( https://spdx.github.io/spdx-spec/v2.3/SPDX-license-expressions/ ) The syntax seemingly does not allow a simple 'listing of all licenses found', instead for multiple licenses it requires to use AND/OR to list multiple License-IDs. So how to properly handle this field? To pass syntax validation we would need to specify the relationships between licenses which would contradict the field's description.
