--- Comment #3 from Lyes Saadi <fedora@xxxxxxx> ---
Hello!

In this section of the guidelines:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#bundling

> All packages whose upstreams have no mechanism to build against system
> libraries MAY opt to carry bundled libraries, but if they do, they MUST
> include an indication of what they bundle. This provides a mechanism for
> locating libraries with bundled code which can, for example, assist in
> locating packages which may have particular security vulnerabilities.
> 
> To indicate an instance of bundling, first determine the name and version of
> the bundled library:
> 
> - If the bundled package also exists separately in the distribution, use the
> name of that package. Otherwise consult the Naming Guidelines to determine an
> appropriate name for the library as if it were entering the distribution as a
> separate package.
> 
> - Use the Versioning Guidelines to determine an appropriate version for the
> library, if possible. If the library has been forked from an upstream, use the
> upstream version that was most recently merged in or rebased onto, or the version
> the original library carried at the time of the fork.
> 
> Then at an appropriate place in your spec, add Provides: bundled(<libname>) = <version>
> where <libname> and <version> are the name and version you determined above. If it
> was not possible to determine a version, use Provides: bundled(<libname>) instead.
> 
> In addition to indicating bundling in this manner, packages whose upstreams have no
> mechanism to build against system libraries must be contacted publicly about a path to
> supporting system libraries. If upstream refuses, this must be recorded in the spec file,
> either in comments placed adjacent to the Provides: above, or in an additional file
> checked into the SCM and referenced by a comment placed adjacent to the Provides: above.

So, a "Provide" for each bundled libraries and the addition of the MIT License
(tomboykeybinder.c) with a comment indicating the license of each bundled
libraries is enough to get the package approved ;)!
