So please don't ask for that burden to be passed on the distro.
Fair enough on the gtk3 requirement (although I expect that if it is
sunset, Transcribe! will move on from it, and if it doesn't, the package
can be just yanked from extra).
On the right to redistribute, there's this:
https://www.seventhstring.com/xscribe/download_linux.html
"Note about "packages"
Some Linux distros offer "packages" for installing Transcribe! That's
fine with me, though you can also very easily install Transcribe!
directly from the download here. However these packages are not produced
by Seventh String so don't ask me for help in using them. In particular
you should avoid the "Flatpak" distribution which doesn't work properly."
I'm reading the "that's fine with me" part as an explicit, written OK to
redistribute.
