From c5c553850899e2662ecf749ac21fff95d17f59a4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lukas Bulwahn Date: Sat, 26 Sep 2020 21:03:54 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] scripts/spdxcheck.py: handle license identifiers in XML comments Commit cc9539e7884c ("media: docs: use the new SPDX header for GFDL-1.1 on *.svg files") adds SPDX-License-Identifiers enclosed in XML comments, i.e., , for svg files. Unfortunately, ./scripts/spdxcheck.py does not handle SPDX-License-Identifiers in XML comments, so it simply fails on checking these files with 'Invalid License ID: --'. Strip the XML comment ending simply by copying how it was done for comments in C. With that, ./scripts/spdxcheck.py handles the svg files properly.
