In the kobo6 image, I'm seeing a bunch of files in /usr/local/Kobo that weren't included in previous versions, but are being shipped in newer models.

Things like libmp3z.so which is only really good with devices that have a Bluetooth chip, foxitpdf which is shipped on newer devices like Sage and Elipsa, MyScript and libiink binaries that are included with devices that have stylus support, etc. The kernel file seems correct though.

While I wouldn't mind access to FoxIt, the rest needs hardware that my Glo HD simply doesn't have, and I'm concerned that I don't have enough space in /root for all of these new files and bad things will happen if I try to flash this.

So my question is this: Is the inclusion of these files intentional, is the kobo6 link incorrect, or did the Sage KoboRoot.tgz file get included in the kobo6 zip by mistake?
Download the firmware for the Sage and do a binary compare on the KoboRoot.tpz files.
