📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The parser now omits dropped license expressions already listed in the reported License column. Unit and end-to-end tests verify that duplicate Apache-2.0 values do not appear in the Detected comment.

Changes

Detected comment filtering

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Filter and wire reported licenses src/fosslight_source/_parsing_scancode_file_item.py	The parser filters dropped expressions against reported licenses and passes license_detected to comment generation.
Validate comment deduplication tests/test_parsing_unknown_spdx.py	Tests verify direct filtering and SPDX-priority parsing behavior.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 0b0d8

This change can omit a detected license from both the License and Comment columns when the final License output removes a raw detected value. Update the filter to use the final License-column values before merging.

In `@src/fosslight_source/_parsing_scancode_file_item.py`:
- Line 875: Update the filtering call near the dropped_matches handling to use
the finalized licenses from result_item.licenses instead of the raw
license_detected list, preserving filtering based on the values remaining after
deduplication and License-column length limiting.
