Description of problem:

publican-redhat brand package legal notice assumes incorrect licensing for Red
Hat documentation.  Additional restrictive "options" on the OPL are contrary to
Red Hat documentation licensing policy.   

Further changes to Red Hat documentation licensing policy may entail further
changes to such legal notices. However, at a minimum these additional
restrictions on top of OPL are unacceptable. Therefore, the publican-redhat
package should be modified accordingly. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
