All static libs should be removed now.

Done.

Done.

Using rpmlint I only get an FSF address error from the debug rpm, only listing
the file ventrilo3_handshake.c. However, the license should still be okay as it
is GPLv3. If I notify upstream about the incorrect addresses this should not be
a blocker.

I can remove those, but it doesn't change anything in the final RPM. Likewise,
the source RPM also includes the android and iphone files, as it contains the
original tar file.

It is part of Mangler and I can't find anyone else using this library. If it is
not strictly required to have a separate library package, I would keep
libventrilo3 and mangler in the same package, and split it up later if
necessary.

Removed.

Now running desktop-file-validate as part of %install.
