Some arguments have been provided to me that provide more clarity on the cleaned source question.
I'm now feeling like this is a required (By the GPL) thing. Two options come to mind. Hacking pacman/libretools to roll the source tarball after prepare(). Thus providing Cleaned sources. or As source under the GPL can be provided upon request. Some server side automation that would run makepkg -o on any pakcages pushed to abslibre and roll the src dir into a tarball (cleaned source) which it makes available on the Parabola.nu web server. Of course Trimming old sources so we aren't trying to store 40 years of sources. Option 2 would save build time. Provide cleaned sources and dodge the question of distributing the liberation PKGBUILDs as part of the source. Nothing would be hidden. PKGBUILDs would live in abslibre as they do now but there'd be a directory of clean source tarballs on the server. Beefcake could probably do the Makepkg -o 'ing and rolling and then rsync the sources into place. Probably signing then with an autobuilder type key.
