With wrong copyright I see this:

Invalid Gentoo Copyright on line: 1

Please make this be corrected automatically

At the moment, it looks like update_copyright code is only called from UpdateChangelog. Since we disabled ChangeLogs in the gentoo repo, this function no longer gets called.

It looks like zmedico has written patches already. See bug 405017 comment 13.

repoman support has been removed per bug 835013.

Please file a new bug (or, I suppose, reopen this one) if you feel this check is still applicable to pkgcheck and doesn't already exist.
