True that only the data parts of the package is actually used by Scummvm 
engine.  That is however irrelevant to the issue at hand.

Great.  When done (for source too!) I believe this issue is solved.

If that is your belief, then don't bother removing that convenience code 
unused at runtime, but simply close this bugreport as false alarm!

The claim of this bugreport is that we do *not* have the sources for all 
code that we ship, and that for some of the code that we ship we do 
*not* have a DFSG-free license.


I am happy that you intend to properly fix this issue, but find it 
rather worrisome that how at the same time you do not acknowledge its 
existence.
