Licenses can be grouped by " or " to indicate that the package can be redistributed under any of the licenses in the group. For instance: GPLv2+ or Artistic or FooLicense.

Also, if a license ends with "+", the "+" is removed before comparing it to the list of valid licenses. So if license "FooLicense" is free, then "FooLicense+" is considered free.

Groups of licenses can be grouped with " and " to indicate that parts of the package are distributed under one group of licenses, while other parts of the package are distributed under another group. Groups may be wrapped in parenthesis. For instance: (GPLv2+ or Artistic) and (GPL+ or Artistic) and FooLicense.

At least one license in each group must be free for the package to be considered Free Software. If the license_text is empty, the package is considered non-free.
