I'm in the process of publishing some apps to flathub.org and got a PR
comment regarding the existence of nonlinux files like dll exe dylib and
some excotic architectures.

I can see references to them like in

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><module
codename="org.netbeans.modules.extbrowser/1">
    <module_version install_time="1708530180943" last="true"
origin="installer" specification_version="1.76">
        <file crc="1411316007"
name="config/Modules/org-netbeans-modules-extbrowser.xml"/>
        <file crc="2085159667" name="modules/lib/extbrowser.dll"/>
        <file crc="4025206001" name="modules/lib/extbrowser64.dll"/>
        <file crc="2392154983"
name="modules/org-netbeans-modules-extbrowser.jar"/>
    </module_version>
</module>

I deleted the dlls and it seems to be working.

I only do monolithic releases/updates but in some applications I have the
plugin manager accessible.

So my question is this, is it safe to just remove the files or will it bite
me in the... end?
