https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1919639 --- Comment #22 from Otto Urpelainen <oturpe@xxxxxx> --- Note that the source stripping can be done without changes upstream. If you check the correct old commit of Calibre package [1] (incorrectly linked above, my mistake, I am sorry for that) I linked before, you will find the following scheme: 1. The spec file refers to a source tarball that is a stripped down version of the upstream tarball 2. The is a comment in spec file explaining which script needs to be run the create the stripped down tarball 3. Said script in included in the repository Similar scheme could be used here to transform upstream sources to smaller source to be used as a starting point for Fedora packaging. Of course, it would be great for Fedora if upstream provided a tarball without bundled dependencies or material specific to other OSes or build systems Fedora does not use — but there is also the method described above. I can also suggest yet another, perhaps simpler way to get started with stripping: If unnecessary files can be removed like this in the %prep section: %prep rm -rf vs2015 # more removals After that, the removed files do not exist for the rest of processing, and fedora-review is also smart enough to not consider when checking for licenses. That way, you could find a suitably simple base. Afterwards, the source stripping script described above could be developed to make the source rpm smaller and simplify the licensing situation there also. I hope this explanation makes sense. Feel free to ask further questions if anything is unclear.
