When this was added in 47e1cb1f0a130baa438d895eff5d05004c9a9aa2, it
also added a COPYING.PYTHON file so that needs removing  in this
commit too - eg a straight revert of that commit.

Second, various source files were then modified to add 'scripts' to
their import path with a line like this:

 sys.path.append(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__),
                             '..', '..', 'scripts'))

so those all need removing too, but I'd suggest that is done
as a separate patch.
