Description of problem: License currently states that the package is "Copyright only", but that is incorrect. License text is as follows: I noticed that docbook-style-xsl package has License tag set to "Copyright only". However this is the text of COPYING file: Copyright --------- Copyright (C) 1999-2007 Norman Walsh Copyright (C) 2003 Jiří Kosek Copyright (C) 2004-2007 Steve Ball Copyright (C) 2005-2008 The DocBook Project Copyright (C) 2011-2012 O'Reilly Media Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the ``Software''), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.

There was an email to fedora-legal[1] about this in April, but it probably fell through cracks. Blocking FE_LEGAL so it doesn't again [1] https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/legal/2013-April/002146.html
Ok, I assume the same is true for docbook5-style-xsl package as well and maybe some other docbook packages - they are quite old and IANAL - so I kept the package license when I got ownership. I'll change it once we find out what's the right license for these packages (as Spot said, it is not 100% MIT).
Use "DMIT" for the License identifier. It is Free, but GPL-incompatible. Sorry for this one falling through the cracks. Lifting FE-Legal, (Apologies for the wrong user on the previous ticket, I was doing some cleanups and I didn't log out of that account.)
Affected docbook-style-xsl and docbook-style-dsssl ... fixed in Rawhide. Thanks for report.
