Yes, it currently is shipped with CDBS but makes sense to separate (I did start some time ago to move it into devscripts, but was turned off by the requirement of testsuite in that project). license-reconcile began, I believe, as a fork of licensecheck2dep5.. I have not yet figured out how to actually use license-reconcile - it may be far superior on all fronts, you'll have to consult its author about that. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
