I'm not saying a human would literally open each file manually. Tools
like 'licensecheck' can automate scanning and reporting from license

where it failed. That's sufficiently accurate to fill in the License
header in the RPM spec as requested by the new guidelines IMHO.

Even that would be an unreasonable effort. I only look at the output of fedora-review's license check if the source project is small and the output looks readable. For any complex project, it's beyond what humans can plausibly handle.
