Summary: avogadro 1.0.1 contains proprietary test files

Initial Comment:
backporting from novell bugzilla:

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=645306

avogadro-1.0.1.tar.bz2/avogadro-1.0.1/testfiles/methane.g03
avogadro-1.0.1.tar.bz2/avogadro-1.0.1/testfiles/methane.nwo
avogadro-1.0.1.tar.bz2/avogadro-1.0.1/testfiles/methanol.nwo

contain what appear to be proprietary test files. From the license statements
in these files, it seems that there is no permission to even copy/redistribute
these files.

Could you please contact upstream to ask if they have received (e.g.)
individual permission to (re)distribute the files? Alternatively, maybe
upstream could provide free test files which are easier for downstream (i.e.
us) to redistribute.
