Hi, this is a short heads-up that the CI check for "reuse-lint" is now updated 
to version fsfe/reuse:4, which in practical terms mean that now the linter 
checks for conformance with REUSE Spec 3.2. -- No projects should start to 
fail with this update (I manually checked the repositories known to be hit by 
an upstream problem earlier this year). Yet, if you suddenly see the linter 
fail in your project and its complains do not make sense, please reach out to 
me if you need help in fixing them.

This update notably brings a few very cool new license annotation features:

- .dep5 files are deprecated and can (and should because they are much better) 
by REUSE.toml files
- there is snippet annotation support
- there is snippet linter disabling support

For details, please see the spec: https://reuse.software/spec-3.2/

Cheers,
Andreas
