Meh. I hate licenses. I'm option to suggestion on what to do with the mix of
gpl licenses.

The guidelines allow for it to be in either. I tend to reserve %check for
actual unit testing of libraries or binary output. To me the failure of a
correct desktop file is an install failure, not a code failure.

Well that's great... I'll ask upstream.

Ditto.

For the unknown files?
