Fair enough, I'll include the command.

Actually by a Fedora Sponsor, I was told to try to get it fixed upstream and if
it didn't take, resort to patches in the RPM.

Okay, I'll include this in another bug report upstream. I was a little confused
when I couldn't see it digging through the *.po files ;)

Course :)

Well as I said, worst case scenario, I'll have to dig through the source to
figure out what needs what and act accordingly. Best case scenario is isolating
all the messy licenses in separated packages of course. Plugins would be the
easiest to split up.

Yep, I'll take a look when I get a chance; it's a bit of a tedious job and I
haven't had a lot of time to do it.
