This is perhaps a silly question... am I right when I say that license text 
files distributed in packages should reflect just the code used in the final 
binary (like the License: tag)?

My question comes from a ticket [1] I raised against Rawtherapee upstream. As I 
recently noticed, in the upcoming next version Rawtherapee started to install 
license files for several things: code used in the project, code optionally 
used in the final output (such as bundled libraries that we don't use in Fedora 
as we use system's libraries), but also external libraries which Rawtherapee 
links to and doesn't bundle at all (I see, for example, gtkmm license text 
file).

If upstream doesn't fix that before the final 5.13 release, I plan to manually 
remove license that doesn't pertain to Fedora distributed binaries. Is that 
right?

Thanks,
Mattia
