That's a good point @tmillr but the tool does not that sort of verification, unfortunately. That would be a really cool feature to implement, though.

@robertohuertasm Thanks for the explanation. I just installed this app and was wondering how it works, or what it's doing exactly, because I was originally under the impression that everything was handled automatically and that no manual configuration was needed.
But then I got the error for missing the required config file, so then I started wondering if this app does any sort of automatic checking for implicit license conflicts at all. For example, some licenses cannot be combined (e.g. Apache 2.0 and GPL2), and manual configuration doesn't seem like it would be necessary to detect these sort of implicit conflicts.
