+            This directory receives package licensing information.
+            For example, the directory contains sub-directories for <filename>bash</filename>,
+            <filename>busybox</filename>, and <filename>eglibc</filename> (among others) that in turn
+            contain appropriate <filename>COPYING</filename> license files with other licensing information.
