Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: Reviewing rh-perl520-perl-Text-Template package. Consequence: License tag for rh-perl520-perl-Text-Template binary package states "GPL+ or Artistic" while the package includes many files licensed under "GPLv2+ or Artistic" terms. Fix: License tags for rh-perl520-perl-Text-Template packages were changed to "(GPL+ or Artistic) and (GPLv2+ or Artistic)". Result: rh-perl520-perl-Text-Template packages declare licenses in concord with their content.

Description Petr Pisar 2015-03-05 12:50:39 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1198991 +++

Current package, perl-Text-Template-1.45-17.fc23, declares license as "GPL+ or Artistic", but the content states "GPLv2+ or Artistic" many times. See upstream bug report <https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=102523>.

I believe the license tag should be changed to "GPLv2+ or Artistic" (or to "(GPL+ or Artistic) and (GPLv2+ or Artistic)" until upstream clarifies the report).rh-

perl520-perl-Text-Template-1.45-17.el7 is affected.
