This is not leading anywhere. Let me know which of the following options would
waste the least amount of everyone's time.
1.) I will provide locations to the files in the foswiki svn but I will not
check (and verify) which tool (with whatever obscure parameter) is used to get
from the file in svn to the file in the tarball. IOW I will not dissect their
build script.
2.) I will have Karsten provide a simple patch which will simply delete the
offending files from our tarball so upstream is clean
3.) I can live with simply droping gnumed-doc since getting all the details
right is taking more ressource then I am willing to allocate to this (this
would make it easier for you as well)
I am grateful for your attempts to solve this (including checking licenses)
but I am not willing to spend time on checking what upstream does.
Since those files are FOSS licensed we could even go as far as including them
into the GNUmed tarball and pretend those were ours.

Sebastian Hilbert
