Subject: ambiguous license
The COPYING file state that the relevant license is Artistic-2.0. However, most of the .pl/.pm files state that the package is licensed under the Perl Artistic license (i.e. the same license under which most Perl modules are licensed) - which is a dual license choice of either GPL-1.0+ or Artistic-1.0. Please confirm what the actual license of the package is. If the Artistic-2.0 license is meant (and _only_ the Artistic-2.0), then COPYING are correct but the license declarations in e.g. the README and most of the source code files are not. also see https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=766390
