Agreed. "or when the SDK is included" stands out to me as a problem,
even though it isn't included on our install media.

It reminds me of several licenses on the "Bad license list", rejected
for their "badgeware" requirements:
Zimbra Public License 1.3 (section 3.2):
https://www.zimbra.com/license/zimbra-public-license-1-3.html
Terracotta Public License 1.0 (section 14):
http://svn.terracotta.org/svn/ehcache/tags/ehcache-2.9.0/distribution/src/main/assembly/root/licenses/EHCACHE-TERRACOTTA-LICENSE.txt

You should remove it from the package sources before uploading it to
the lookaside cache. Download the source from upstream, remove the
unshippable parts, and then create a new tarball that is used in the
spec file. For example, this is what openssl does:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/openssl/blob/rawhide/f/openssl.spec#_27
