The file: examples-ml/Combinatorica5.m Cannot be included in Fedora cue to the following licensing clause:
This package may be copied in its entirety for nonprofit purposes only. Sale, other than for the direct cost of the media, is prohibited. This copyright notice must accompany all copies.
Good spot. Will rm in prep.
No, you need a modified tarball, so it doesn't wind up in the SRPM. See:https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/SourceURL#When_Upstream_uses_Prohib...
That links says "Some upstream packages include patents or trademarks that we are not allowed to ship even as source code." It does not say we need to remove improperly licensed files from the source tarball.
Yeah, probably disable. And your -static/-devel explanation is IMHO sound.
Alright.
