well, the whole reason why we (not just Harald) use SPDX is because it
allows us to automate a bunch of checks/things. The price we pay for
that there is no room for part of our sources being different.

However, there's a hack/workaround we applied to not make the CI fail:
https://invent.kde.org/sysadmin/ci-utilities/-/commit/404fe50cc0055cf417e0712ab4843d80e4cc33e8

The reason Harald is still having this problem is that he's using the
wrong reuse job, i.e. we should use
https://invent.kde.org/sysadmin/ci-utilities/raw/master/gitlab-templates/reuse-lint.yml
instead of the legacy
https://invent.kde.org/sysadmin/ci-tooling/raw/master/invent/ci-reuse.yml.
The latter doesn't have that workaround applied.

That said long-term we should certainly aim for translations being
marked using SPDX, but using the appropriate job makes that less urgent.

Cheers

Nico
