I was to quick. From the list discussion, there are one or two more bundled
libs.

The src/modules/simu/simuv2.1/SOLID-2.0 lib is clear, it should be packaged
separately. Since it doesn't exist in Fedora today, I suggest that you make a
new request for this package, blocking this one. Note that qhull, which SOLID
possibly depends on, exists in Fedora (v 2003.1).

In my eyes, the pasted part of a header file  in src/libs/tgf/tgf.h is not a
bundled library.

BTW, the upstream discussion describes this as "Fedora's law".  But it's also
Debian's law, see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:No_Bundled_Libraries
(links at at the very end).

Since repackaging the SOLID-2 library should mean exactly the same code as
today, besides build system patches, maybe something is possible? Note that the
library can still be part of the source, just the system variant is used if it
exists.
