Could you also update dnf5.spec to package this file with %license macro in the subpackages which use files license like that? And also correct their License RPM tags?

What stuff do we have that's LGPL-2.0 that hasn't just been updated to LGPL-2.1?

Those all seem like mistakes. All this code is new, there's no reason to have LGPL-2.0-or-later over LGPL-2.1-or-later.

The code was written with "either version 2 of the License" in their license disclaimers. This patch is not going to change the license. It only mirrors what was in the disclaimers to SPDX identifier.
