meta-networking adds to LICENSE_PATH like many other layers:
oe-core$ grep LICENSE_PATH meta-openembedded/meta*/conf/layer.conf
meta-openembedded/meta-multimedia/conf/layer.conf:LICENSE_PATH +=
"${LAYERDIR}/licenses"
meta-openembedded/meta-networking/conf/layer.conf:LICENSE_PATH +=
"${LAYERDIR}/licenses"
meta-openembedded/meta-oe/conf/layer.conf:LICENSE_PATH +=
"${LAYERDIR}/licenses"
meta-openembedded/meta-python/conf/layer.conf:LICENSE_PATH +=
"${LAYERDIR}/licenses"
meta-openembedded/meta-webserver/conf/layer.conf:LICENSE_PATH +=
"${LAYERDIR}/licenses"

so nothing strange there, but lvm2.inc is a bit fishy with:
inherit autotools-brokensep pkgconfig systemd license

the license inherit was added long time ago with:

| grep AVAILABLE_LICENSES | grep List.of.dep
List of dependencies for variable AVAILABLE_LICENSES is set()
List of dependencies for variable expand_wildcard_licenses is
{'AVAILABLE_LICENSES'}

Anyone seeing the same? I wonder if it was somehow introduced in recent
licensing changes, but I don't see anything obvious and I thought that
check-yocto-layer used to pass for meta-multimedia before.
