NAME
       pkgctl-license-check - Checks package licensing compliance using REUSE

SYNOPSIS
       pkgctl license check [OPTIONS] [PKGBASE...]

DESCRIPTION
       Checks package licensing compliance using REUSE and also verifies
       whether a LICENSE file with the expected Arch Linux-specific 0BSD
       license text exists.

CONFIGURATION
       Uses reuse(1) and a REUSE.toml file located alongside the PKGBUILD(5).
       Refer to the configuration section in pkgctl-license(1).

       If no PKGBASE is specified, the command defaults to using the current
       working directory.

OPTIONS
       -h, --help
           Show a help text

EXIT CODES
       On exit, return one of the following codes:

       0
           Normal exit condition, all checked packages are compliant

       1
           Unknown cause of failure

       2
           Normal exit condition, but some packages are not compliant
