I've had a look through my gen-tar repacking, and I'm getting unsure again..

None of the following things are used, but how zealous should I be in removing
them?
(The CGTextures item is an obvious removal, legally, so repacking is required
no matter what.)

There are a bunch of binary blobs which are LGPL, they have no source in this
tarball, however their source can be found in other Fedora packages (though
likely the wrong version), and online, e.g. the SDL libs.

Yet more blobs are permissively licensed, without source, e.g. freetype.lib.

There's also a bunch of build/install items for win/osx.


So what I'm wondering is, which of these needs to be taken care of in gen-tar,
and which in %prep?

And if the case is that I'm already doing repacking, is it wrong to remove more
cruft whilst "already at it"?
(Size-wise the gain is ~50MB for the SRPM...)
