Follow-up Comment #4, bug #49952 (project octave):
What should we use for the metadata_license?
>From the documentation link that Carnë sent
<metadata_license/>
The <metadata_license/> tag is indicating the content license that you are
releasing the one metadata file as. This is not typically the same as the
project license. By ommitting the license value would probably mean your data
would not be incorporated into the distribution metadata. Permissible license
codes include:
CC0-1.0
CC-BY-3.0
CC-BY-SA-3.0
GFDL-1.3
MIT
The license codes correspond to the identifiers found at the SPDX
OpenSource License Registry. Take a look at <metadata_license/> for more
details about this tag.
The program is GPL v3 or above, but they are specifically saying to use
different license terms for this metadata file.
@Orion, since you do more packaging for mainstream distributions like Fedora,
is there a standard license type that other GNU projects use?
