The README.chromium files contain the attribution for third-party sources in the Chromium project (that is included in the Qt WebEngine module). However, some of these files cannot be found in the qt/qtwebengine repository, thus preventing them from being correctly displayed in the Licenses used in Qt documentation page.
Files
These README.chromium files mention licenses files that are located in blacklisted directories (src directories that are not included into Qt because the qtwebengine/tools/scripts/take_snapshot.py script ignores them):
- third_party/jsr-305/README.chromium
- third_party/wayland/README.chromium
These README.chromium files mention licenses files in a folder that isn't existing at all:
- buildtools/third_party/libc++/trunk/LICENSE.TXT
- buildtools/third_party/libc++abi/trunk/LICENSE.TXT
- buildtools/third_party/libunwind/trunk/LICENSE.TXT
- third_party/libaom/source/libaom/LICENSE
These folders contain only a README.chromium file (and no code), so we probably don't need them anymore so they could be removed:
- third_party/glslang-angle/
- third_party/spirv-headers/
- third_party/spirv-tools-angle/
- third_party/vulkan-validation-layers/
Note: all the mentioned paths are located in the qtwebengine/src/3rdparty/chromium/ folder.
