  I talked about the topic on #archlinux and it seems that the accepted
solution is to use 'MIT' in the `license` array, despite there is no
corresponding text in the “licenses” package, and put the text into
“/usr/share/licenses/pkgname”, despite it is not marked as 'custom' in
the `license` array. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  I still consider it illogical, but I have been outvoted. But I would
not claim that “libdrm” maintainer is wrong on using 'custom' here.
