Subject: [ptxdist] [PATCH 0/5] SPDX license expression fixes
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2026 14:08:21 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260312130827.137022-1-m.heidelberg@cab.de> (raw)

In the generated report I noticed wrong license categorization in some
packages and thus had a look over the PTXdist rules resulting in several
fixes/improvements.

The following invalid license identifiers have not been fixed.
That would require checking the projects about the license version or
the only/or-later choice. One exception is the "piglit" package because
with using a mix of v2+/v3/v2 it seemed very likely that only the naming
was not SPDX conform.

  - BSD
  - GPL
  - LGPL
  - GPL v2
  - GPL2
  - GPLv3
  - LGPLv2

The last patch to allow standard conform lower case license expression
operators is marked as RFC. I think it is probably better to reject it
and to avoid problems by consistently using upper case operators.

Markus Heidelberg (5):
  use canonical upper and lower case in SPDX license identifiers
  use upper case SPDX license expression operators
  fix some invalid SPDX license expressions/identifiers
  glmark2: fix SPDX license identifier for SGI license
  ptxd_make_world_license: allow lower case SPDX license expression
    operators
