This is the shortcut we once had agreed upon to use, when a perl-module's
copyright carries license notice of this kind:

"This library is free software; you may redistribute and/or modify it under the
same terms as Perl itself."

So licensing-wise this package seems OK.

Wrt. to license files we once also had agreed upon NOT to require detached
license files, unless the package contains one. i.e. if a perl-module contains
one you MUST add it to %doc, if not you don't have to add one.

So. both rpmlint complains are void.
