ambiguous-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright
The paragraph has both License
and
Copyright
fields, but no Files
field. The paragraph
is technically valid according to the DEP 5 specification, but it is probably
a mistake.
If the paragraph is a "stand-alone" license paragraph, the Copyright
field is not needed. If it is, on the other hand, "files" paragraph, the
Files
field is missing.
The Files
field was at some point optional in some circumstances
but is now mandatory in all "files" paragraphs.
