Hi,
Wouldn't it be a lot easier to do the checking on the repository level?
I mean, distributions that care about these things are normally pretty
good at ensuring compliance and sorting packages into the proper
repositories. Notably rpm-fusion will have two repositories [1] that
AFAICT maps to Debian's non-us and non-free.
You can still display the license per package in the UI; sounds like
PackageKit could be a useful tool for compliance checking.
