Conan-Kudo requested changes on this pull request.

Some of these scripts don't fully clarify the intent of which license the code is actually under. This feels gross and I don't think it helps make the licensing of RPM as a whole easier to understand.

Either clarify the licensing of the scripts in question (GPLv2+ or what?) or remove the scripts.

What does this mean? What version of the license?
