To do so, XPath analysis should be sufficient.
Agreed, licensecheck should ideally detect structured licensing data like above RDF metadata. For now, a workaround is to extract such metadata using exiftool (debian package libimage-exiftool-perl), e.g. like this: 1>&2 exiftool '-textOut!' %d%f.%e:meta -short -short -recurse -ext svg . licensecheck --copyright --deb-machine --recursive --lines 0 --check '.*' --ignore '.*\.svg$' -- * find -type f -name '*.svg' -delete More elaborate use of that workaround (although not for SVG files specifically) can be found e.g. here: https://sources.debian.org/src/ghostscript/9.53.3%7Edfsg-5/debian/copyright-check/ - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
