I looked into the source tar ball and it contains .jar files distributed under the terms of the LGPL. Deleting the jar files in the %prep section doesn't make the fact that we've distributed these things go away. The .jar files don't come with source code and AFAICT there's no mention of where to get the source code. We really must delete these .jar files before they get packaged into the SRPM. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
