Description:

The common CPPL license has 6 different types. The appropriate type is identified in the license field like: license=('CCPL:by-nc-sa')

However, namcap throws an error:
$ namcap PKGBUILD *any.pkg.tar.xz
xcursor-vanilla-dmz E: CCPL:by-nc-sa is not a common license (it's not in /usr/share/licenses/common/)
xcursor-vanilla-dmz-aa E: CCPL:by-nc-sa is not a common license (it's not in /usr/share/licenses/common/)

Pehaps namcap should compare the part before the colon with the list of common licenses.
This task depends upon
