Descrição
I have scanned few Binaries using Scancode toolkit. I wanted to know how to find the "Start Line" from the report back to Binary? For e.g. the Scancode toolkit report says "Start Line 64343" (for License text option) but I am unable to locate the exact Binaries in the original Binary file.
The reason I am posting is because I found a GPL v1 license as per the ScanCode report. The rule it used to identify was "GPL-Bare-word". But I wasn't able to find the word GPL in the actual raw binary (Ascii converted). If I could trace the exact location then asserting false positives would be easier.
