Subject: Sample spec template misuses VENDOR tag
https://metacpan.org/pod/Dist::Zilla::Plugin::RPM#SAMPLE-SPEC-FILE-TEMPLATE Show quoted text
> SAMPLE SPEC FILE TEMPLATE > ... > Vendor: <% $zilla->license->holder %>

> The vendor tag is used to define the name of the entity that is responsible for packaging the software.
So, using copyright holder as VENDOR is not a good example. BTW, Fedora guidelines https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_an_RPM_package prescribes: Show quoted text
> Do NOT use these tags > Packager > Vendor > Copyright
Vendor and Packager could be specified in user or site .rpmmacro file.
