This behaviour is intentional, as recipetool isn't smart enough to read the licensing terms and decide if there are multiple licenses in aggregate (&) or a choice of licenses (|). The solution is to list all the licenses that have been found, let bitbake throw a warning, and the person creating a recipe comprehend the licensing situation and add the relevant operations. Ross
