Version: 2.122
Severity: normal
Dear Mantainer,
If I use "GPL-3+ with Font-exception-2.0" as a license short name in my
debian/copyright file, I get:
$ cme update dpkg-copyright
Updating data...
Configuration item 'Files:"etc/fonts/*" License short_name' has a wrong value:
value 'GPL-3+ with Font-exception-2.0' does not match grammar from model
But this is a perfectly valid syntax for a license short name, see:
https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/#license-short-name
Cheers,
