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?

rpmlint only knows what licenses we tell it, and the Fedora rpmlint policy has not been updated yet because we want the fedora-license-data package to produce the necessary TOML file that rpmlint will source rather than me maintaining another copy of this.
rpmlint will handle both Fedora style and SPDX license tags once we have that data file in place.

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.

Ideally, both files would come from there instead, since they will maintain the list of allowed licenses there.
I filed an issue for it: https://gitlab.com/fedora/legal/fedora-license-data/-/issues/65

IOW tracked yes, acted upon does not seem so.

It is not tracked.
It needs to be done here
https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpmlint/blob/main/configs/Fedora/...
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/generate-...
I will not have a capacity for this in upcoming days. Anyone is free to grab this.
