Hi Efraim,

thanks for your message! I like how you consolidated the binaries into a
single package with a custom phase. I was going to ask whether you got
the GUI working, but after taking another look at the unbundling part,
it's clear that this is still not there.

When it comes to my own efforts for packaging keybase, I have
categorized all the vendored dependencies according to their licenses.
I have found 3 libraries without a license. For 2 of them, I prodded the
authors a bit and they now include a license. However, I haven't
received a response on github.com/keybase/golang-ico (note that despite
the /keybase/ in the URL, this is just a fork, the original author has
no relation to keybase).

I am considering learning enough Go to replace that library with a
freely-licensed alternative and submitting a PR upstream, however it is
quite low on my TODOs.

Regards,
Jakub Kądziołka
