[Fedora-legal-list] "content" in source tarball

[Christian Krause]

Hi,

I'm currently maintaining the package "anki" which is basically a
learning program. The original tarball includes a couple of sample files
with different licenses (some are not acceptable for Fedora). That's why
the tarball gets re-generated without the samples before it gets packaged.

In this case sample files mean that they contain larger amount of
"learning content".

Given the upstream package would be changed to contain only GPL-licensed
sample files - would the following be ok:

1. The new upstream package is used without modifications for packaging
and so the src.rpm would contain the (GPL-licensed) examples.

2. The binary package would not have these examples installed due to the
"no-content" policy.


Best regards,
Christian
