Make the Tails Installer upstream tarball DFSG-free
Our release process for Tails Installer is complicated by the fact we
repack the upstream tarball to remove the tools/
directory and in turn
make it DFSG-free. I think the only reason why we’ve historically chosen
to keep the Windows binaries in tools/*
was: we might need them if we
port the Installer to Windows (#8550 (closed)). But we have no such plan
anymore, our plan is #15292 (closed) which does not require to do that. So we
could now delete the tools/
directory from our master Git branch and
simplify the release process doc.
