# RECOMMENDATIONS
* Fix missing licenses: For at least one of the license identifiers provided by
the 'SPDX-License-Identifier' tags, there is no corresponding license text
file in the 'LICENSES' directory. For SPDX license identifiers, you can simply
run 'reuse download --all' to get any missing ones. For custom licenses
(starting with 'LicenseRef-'), you need to add these files yourself.
* Fix invalid SPDX License Expressions: In one or more files there are SPDX
License Expressions which cannot be parse. Check whether the value that
follows 'SPDX-License-Identifier:' is correct. If the detected expression is
not meant to be valid, put it between 'REUSE-IgnoreStart' and 'REUSE-
IgnoreEnd' comments.
