Comment 0 for bug 992872

The current license information presented by USC is incomplete and confusing.

It lists "open source", "proprietary" and "unknown" and doesn't present the license itself which can lead to installing and using software without knowledge of not following the conditions on such licenses.

In the case of free open source software the specific license should at least be mentioned ("GPL v3", etc.).

Aplogies in advance if I lack the time to document other suggestions, I've decided to file this bug with the above commentary only so other can relate to it / augment it accordingly.
