There were issues in parsing LGPL license in spdx-correct. Previously
parsing LGPL was fixed once in "Fixed handling of GNU LGPL licenses in
spdx-correct". The fix depended on the file in /patches directory to
patch spdx-correct. The /patches directory was not included in the
Dockerfile and hence the previous LGPL fix was not effective in the
docker deployment.
There was a recent release of spdx-correct. The LGPL issues that the
patch intended to fix seem resolved. Upgrade spdx-correct to the most
recent version. LGPLv2 and LGPLv2+ are still not correctly identified.
Added patch for the specific cases.
Also update Dockerfile so that the patch will be effective in the container
deployment.
Test cases:
"url": "cd:/pypi/pypi/-/pycountry/22.3.5"
"url": "cd:/pypi/pypi/-/chardet/5.1.0"
"url": "cd:/pypi/pypi/-/PyGObject/3.42.0"
In addition to info.classifier entries in the registry data used to extract license information, there is also info.license in the registry data. This can also provide license information when there is no license information in the classifiers. Tese cases: pypi/pypi/-/dnspython/1.11.0 pypi/pypi/-/pytorch-ignite/0.5.0.dev20220727 pypi/pypi/-/mitmproxy-wireguard/0.1.10
