Im considering to package the Spotify client  [1]:  This is a binary without
sources  aimed for  the nonfree section. Two issues are not immediately
clear to me:

-Package  has a frightening  attachment of included licenses [2]. Do I need
to sort out all of these in the License: tag?! Or is there a loophole to
just use "Re-distributable, no changes permitted" , which is the overall
conditions from Spotify?
This disclamer is usually reserved for firmwares in fedora, but can
apply to Proprietary software  running on a CPU too.

- To make things work, I need to bundle some old libs (libssl, libcrypto)
since I can't relink the  spotify binary blob.  Is this OK; given that these
libs are private and not visible to other packages?
It will need to be filtered from the RPM dependency extractor too, but
this is usally expectable with closed source software, indeed. You are
not allowed to strip them.
