I had another look around the repository. The tool used to "compile" those XML files into text, html, json and so on is written in java with a lot of dependencies that are not present in Debian yet. I am not willing to introducing dozens of new packages just to produce a text result of those sources files. I'm wondering if packaging the "data" repository[1] would be acceptable? On one hand it is generated, but one the other, it is still plain text files. [1]: https://github.com/spdx/license-list-data -- Baptiste BEAUPLAT - lyknode
