I notice that no-one is assuming that this could have
been an innocent mistake. I accept that it is
unlikely, but it wouldn't be the first time that a
file has been included in a software release in error.
I would agree that it is entirely inappropriate for
this file to be distributed with FlightGear, but has
anyone asked the package maintainer if they intended
the file to be included?
