In case when > said source tarball needs to be mirrored or distributed with the build. The main point is to ensure the runtime is GPLv3 free. With those files removed, that is the case. If you share a mirror with some GPLv3 code in it, it has a very different effect licensing wise compared to v3 binaries on a system. I'm not a lawyer though and I'd be interested to know if you've heard a different interpretation of the license? > And, BTW, there is one more little script under GPLv3 - tests/ts/lscpu/lscpu As Nitin replied, I thought that was removed already?
