--- Comment #7 from Petr Viktorin <pviktori(a)redhat.com> ---
Remove the CC-BY-NC files, and let upstream know that these files aren't [Free
Content], which is complicating distribution of all of Kivy.
[Free Content]:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_content
I am not sure if removing them can be done by simply not including them in the
built RPMs, or if you need to remove them from the SRPM as well, as described
here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:SourceURL#When_Upstream_uses_Pro...
Since I'm not sure, I made the bug block FE-Legal to get someone from the Legal
team to clarify.
The section I linked above says "Some upstream packages include patents or
trademarks that we are not allowed to ship even as source code," so maybe
"Non-Commercial" licenced code is OK to ship in SRPMs? But that reading
doesn't
sound right -- are there no *licence* restrictions on SRPMs? I couldn't find
much in the various guidelines. If there are, I believe the "When Upstream uses
Prohibited Code" paragraph should mention/link to them.
