On the other hand, our package infrastructure is not able to run a
command to get the license text. It expects to have one file available
in the source tree. (Though this can be worked-around by having a post
extract hook that runs the --showlicense thing and redirects the output
into a file in the source tree).
So the best way would be to simply tell Freescale to stop doing silly
self-extractable executables, and switch to normal tarballs, just like
everyone else does in the Linux world :-)
