        $text = Software::LicenseMoreUtils->new_from_short_name($h)->summary_or_text ;
    } ;
    if ($text) {
        # need to cleanup text to mimic cleanup done when copyright
        # data is read from file
        chomp($text);
        # cleanup tabs, not allowed by copyright spec
        $text =~ s!\t!    !g;
        # cleanup empty lines (which are also cleaned up when writing file,
        # but this messes tests up)
        $text =~ s!\n +\n!\n\n!g;
    }
 # FIXME: find a way to warn user if a license is unknown only when
 # text is not set by another mean... may loop bad if not careful
 #   if ($@ and ! $self->value_object->{data}) {
 #       print "Cannot find license text for $lic\n" ;
 #   }
 }
