Bug#704306: libconfig-model-dpkg-perl: does not catch invalid license text

[Felix Natter]

Package: libconfig-model-dpkg-perl
Version: 2.034
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

"cme check dpkg-copyright" could be extended to check more of the
syntax, especially invalid license texts.

For instance, this is accepted:

Files: *
Copyright: 2006-2013 Foo Bar <foo at bar.com>
License: GPL-2+
    bla

but "bla" is not a correct license and it's not indented correctly.

Thanks!
