    Description

      Qtwebengine tarball ships with

      src/3rdparty/chromium/third_party/unrar/

      which is not a free software (neither according to FSF definition nor according to Open Source definition).

      Quick grep'ing indicates that qtwebengine does not use it. Maybe it's possible to remove it from future release tarballs?
