Yes, it's OK to include the first two rpms, as they only should include
files licensed under LGPLv2.1+. The last three rpm's needs to be avoided
to get a GPLv3 free image.
If any of the rpm's would have been licensed under "GPLv3+ & LGPLv2.1+",
it would also have been fine to include that one in your image, as in
this case, you're free to choose between the two licenses.
Cheers,
Anders
