Some ThinLinc licenses have expiration dates. That date is difficult to find. The best way to find that information is to open and view a license file under /opt/thinlinc/etc/licenses/, but this is not very convenient. It would be cool if this information was available through `tlctl license` and Web Admin.
Should be done. Tested on Fedora 41 using a set of licenses: * Valid licenses * Expired licenses (by date) * Old licenses (old version) * Broken license files (from vsm/tests/licenses) > MUST > > * Any license expiration dates must be available in an easy way for the admin. Yep they are - both in Web Admin (under status/licenses) and from `tlctl license show`. > SHOULD > > * The license expiry date should be available both through Web Admin and tlctl.

One important detail that the implementation misses right now is how many licenses that will be impacted by the expiry date. Given that this is tied more closely to agreements, this information is probably best moved to the command showing subscription agreements (currently named `tlctl license id` but will be changed in bug 8418).
