The complete classes/ directory is deleted in the spec file in the %install section. Please advice, whether the pre-compiled java binaries can be distributed via the src.rpm or whether the upstream tarball should be re-packaged without these files. 2. License: Although the COPYING files indicates GPLv2+, there are a couple of source files which explicitly state GPLv2. Most of these files are in the unused libvncserver/ directory, so they can be ignored. However, the file x11vnc/x11vnc.c which used to build /usr/bin/x11vnc (included in the binary RPM) is licensed under GPLv2. This would lead to the conclusion that the whole package should be GPLv2. Please can you confirm this? Thank you very much in advance!
