 [I'm unsure if this is in the right component - if not, maybe flashproxy
 might me more appropriate?]

 I have looked at
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/flashproxy.git/blob/HEAD:/doc/bundle-
 gnulinux.txt and if this is the procedure we use to build the PT bundles
 then we might be in violation of several licenses and/or infringe several
 people's copyrights.

 Copying things out of /usr and shipping it is something that needs to be
 done very carefully.  Please investigate the licensing details and in
 particular redistribution requirements for all the things that you lift
 out of the installed system.
