  == License tag
 

  

- Perl itself is dual licensed, under both the GPL and Artistic licenses. Many Perl modules follow this practice; when they do, the license tag should be filled out as "GPL+ or Artistic", not the other way around.
 

- 

- Note also that under the https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:Main[license tag guidelines], it's important to specify "GPL+" not just "GPL" for those packages "licensed under the same terms as Perl itself."

- License: GPL+ or Artistic

+ See https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/legal/license-field/#_perl_packages[License: field in Spec file] guidance specific to Perl.
