The policy on prohibited code says that such code has to be removed from the
source tarball if there are patent or trademark issues that legally prevent
shipping the file even in source form.  That is not the case for this file; the
problem is just that we don't like the license.  Including the file in the
source tarball but not using it or packaging it in the RPM doesn't have any
patent or trademark issue.  My interpretation of the policy was that although
we should try to get it resolved upstream, it wasn't required that we modify
the tarball.

However, since you feel strongly about it, I have now removed the file
following the same procedure specified for patent and trademark issues.

The updated spec and SRPM are:
