However the power of the tool is that the behaviour can be overridden and complemented by rules. Rules include the ability to file match, to match against licensecheck output and to extract copyright years. The rules can be defined in a file and should need to be changed less often than the debian/copyright file itself. If necessary copyright and license data can be extracted from the source code in more specialized ways by adding Perl modules below Debian::LicenseReconcile::Filter.
