Ehm, there are more than few packages in official repos with missing license field. What we should do with such bug-reports for single package?

good question... i'm lazy to go through all my 300 pkgs to look what licence they are relesed under... i am doing this addition of the licence field on the run, respectively when i update a pkg and just by chance see what licence it needs. i'm for sure not going to release a new pkgrel for htop just because of this licence line... but next time i release a new version-update, this field will be in PKGBUILD as i added it now to CVS.
