If it were my package, I would take the original upstream tarball, then
document exactly what I removed, and make a new "clean" tarball that
didn't have the conflicts at all. In the spec file, I would put my
notes, like this:

# The upstream source can be found here:
# http://foo.com/bar-1.2.3.tar.gz
# Due to licensing concerns, I had to remove python-foo and python-bar.
# To generate the new source, run:
# tar xvz bar-1.2.3.tar.gz && cd bar-1.2.3
# rm -rf foo/ bar/
# cd ..
# tar cvz bar-clean-1.2.3.tar.gz bar-1.2.3

hope that helps,
