OK, that's a neat attempt to change the topic - but we were talking about compression of .src.rpm. No matter how you got there: at the end the sources need to be in the src.rpm.
I don't read that in the GPL.
They (a tarball, cpio archive, expanded git checkout, whatever) need to be on the same media set as the src.rpm, but I cannot see how a HOWTO telling "SRPMS/foo.src.rpm needs sourceballs/foo.zip for building" and both delivered on the same DVD / the same would violate the GPL.
Actually, .src.rpm are often of limited usefulness on their own. Our build process relies on carefully prepared build environment, both w.r.t. what is installed and what is _not_. Some of are packages won't even build when you try rpmbuild on the .src.rpm.
