Probably, just put the files in the right place and list them in
%files.
So long as it's not for public consumption, or complies with the
licensing of the code.
Right - as long as it is complies with the licensing of the code it should
be okay.
I am not sure how to modify %files in my spec file to *remove* certain file
types.
Any suggestions how to do that? My %files section is pretty basic right
now:
%files
%defattr(-,root,root,-)
