Package 'perl': License identifiers `GPL` and `PerlArtistic` not SPDX compliant.

Ahoj,

the PKGBUILD of the package system/perl has
Code: [Select]
license=('GPL' 'PerlArtistic')
Both are not valid SPDX license identifiers.

Or, see as follows:

  • pacman -Syy -w perl
  • namcap /var/cache/pacman/pkg/perl-5.40.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst | grep E:
  • Observe:
    Code: [Select]
    perl E: GPL is not a valid SPDX license identifier. See https://spdx.org/licenses/ for valid identifiers, or prefix the identifier with 'LicenseRef-', if it is custom.
    perl E: PerlArtistic is not a valid SPDX license identifier. See https://spdx.org/licenses/ for valid identifiers, or prefix the identifier with 'LicenseRef-', if it is custom.

Regards!
