Ewwww, please no. Apps need to know whether a given RPM is using SPDX
or not, independantly of whether they have Fedora git source history
available. We just need to record this fact in the specfile explicitly,
so it is available both to maintainers and to any apps parsing the
spec and to any apps querying the installed RPMDB.

With regards,
