Using %doc on a non-installed file implies an implicit rm -rf on the doc
directory. For this particular package that lacks doxygen documentation in the
sources this would be harmless since there are no files installed there, but
this is not the case for properly documented Globus packages. In order to
decrease the effort needed to maintain the Globus packages the differences
between the specfiles for the different packages should be kept at a minimum.
For this reason the lines in the specfile that are responsible for the
packaging of the license file is kept the same for all Globus packages.
