This is duw to this description being empty: https://github.com/nexB/scancode-toolkit/blob/develop/src/packagedcode/misc.py#L273

So I'm assuming this is the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Disk_Image file and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparse_image file, and something like: macOS disk image file would be sufficient for this?

The only other package parser type with an empty description was: https://github.com/nexB/scancode-toolkit/blob/develop/src/packagedcode/readme.py#L43 I'm not sure what to add for this one.

@armijnhemel @pombredanne what do you think? ^

@pombredanne ^ Is there something we can add for this?
