Bug#610242: [libconfig-model-perl] Doesn't recognise DEP5 standalone license BSD-3-clause

[Emil Langrock]

Package: libconfig-model-perl
Version: 1.229-1
Severity: normal

I tested config-edit with following command:

$ config-edit -application dpkg-copyright -ui none

the debian/copyright file has a standalone license BSD-3-clause license which 
is referenced elsewhere in the file. This license is defined in 
http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep5/ rev153 but the parser still warns that it is 
invalid:

Warning in 'License': key 'BSD-3-clause' should match ^(?i:Apache|Artistic|
BSD|FreeBSD|ISC|CC-BY|CC-BY-SA|CC-BY-ND|CC-BY-NC|CC-BY-NC-SA|CC-BY-NC-ND|CC0|
CDDL|CPL|Eiffel|Expat|GPL|LGPL|GFDL|GFDL-NIV|LPPL|MIT|MPL|Perl|PSF|QPL|W3C-
Software|ZLIB|Zope)[\d\.\-]*\+?$

And the software doesn't catch real problems. For example I can have a text 
formatted like package long descriptions which is malformed (for example 
removed those nifty " ." and replaced same with " ".
