+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2077908 +++ Unfortunately, rpminspect-data-fedora brings in a lot of heavy-weight transitive dependencies, including clamav-data at over 200 MB. Maybe there is something that can be done in rpminspect-data-fedora to make it easier to depend on just the license data without bringing in everything needed to use the rpminspect config. It would be awesome if the license/fedora.json can be put into separate subpackage. As it should not require anything else.
Working on that at the moment. The license data is actually moving to a separate project entirely and then the file will go away in rpminspect-data-fedora (and the others) and the data package will just start depending on the new license-data package that delivers that file.
This is done with rpminspect-data-fedora-1.9. That release is now built across epel7, epel8, epel9, and the currently supported Fedora releases.
