No, the most common correct course of action is to fix the package (by
adding the standard license blurb and/or fixing the copyright line(s)).
Sometimes (as in this recent case) the right thing is to change the
$(CR_EXCEPTIONS) because the "problems" caught are not actual problems,
but that's much less common.

OK. Could you update the README accordingly? I don't want to put words
in the maintainer's mouth :)
Thanks
