Well, I made use of the patch in unstable, and finished off all
packages in that repo tonight. In fact, I even cleaned out some files
that were no longer necessary on top of everything.
So, current status:
[extra] rougly 1100 invalid or missing licenses found by my script
[community] rougly 430 invalid or missing licenses
[unstable] complete - no invalid or missing licenses
Script attached to the email again if anyone wants to use it. I'm
finding it particularily handy - and I updated it to check for custom
licenses where the PKGBUILD doesn't reference usr/share/licenses -
should weed out some incorrect custom licenses too.
