I've been using scancode to take an in-depth look at packages I
maintain. I'm up to packages that start with "a"! While looking at
the antlr3 package, I found that it contains 3 files with the
LicenseRef-Unicode-legacy-source-code license, which is not allowed
for Fedora [1]. The files are part of the C/C++ backend. They have
been built into binary RPMs for Fedora since 2010 [2] (Fedora 12?).
Repoquery shows that nothing in Fedora uses the C/C++ backend. I will
build updates for F42, F43, and Rawhide that disable it. My question
is whether I need to do anything more than that. Do I need to scrub
the offending files out of the tarball, for example?

Does this not apply to antlr4 also? I do at least recall that there are
a few packages that bundle antlrX, so maybe those need to be checked also?
