 be parsed correctly or some legal information is missing.
 
-A file without copyright and license information is skipped.

-On the other hand, a file with either copyright or license missing

+All scanned files, even without copyright or license will be used. A

 C<debian/fill.copyright.blanks.yml>. It should contain a "mapping"
 YAML structure (i.e. a hash), where the key is a Perl pattern used to
-match a path. E.g:
