Description
Problem: Different sources for importing package data to DejaCode vary greatly in quality. If a Package already exists with no license or copyright values, it does not get updated if you use Package Import from a spreadsheet (csv) to import the same package with more comprehensive data.
Benefit: Provide a means to improve Package data when importing.
Solution: In a manner roughly equivalent to the Import SBOM to a Product feature, where there is an option to "Update existing packages with discovered packages data" where "only the empty fields will be updated", make that the default behavior for Package Import. Show the number of modified packages on the results page.
Notes: Spreadsheets have recently resurfaced as an important source for package data.
