Hello license folks. I see that Fedora's rpmlint is yet to be taught to understand SPDX: python3-lxml.x86_64: W: invalid-license BSD-3-Clause python3-lxml.x86_64: W: invalid-license MIT-CMU Is this support tracked somewhere? I know openSUSE already uses SPDX, so rpmlint probably knows how to read that. Right?

Great. Is this the file? https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rpmlint/blob/rawhide/f/licenses.toml What's needed? Move this file to licenses-legacy.toml and install licenses.toml from fedora-license-data? I can do that.

It needs to be done here https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpmlint/blob/main/configs/Fedo... The previous data was hand picked. So we need to write a script similar to https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpmlint/blob/main/tools/genera... I will not have a capacity for this in upcoming days. Anyone is free to grab this.
