Redistributables for MKL, missing redist.txt?

$

Hi,

I have a paid copy of the Intel MKL, but not the Intel compiler. We use MKL to speed up processing in an application that we sell. I just installed version 2017 update 2. Unlike previous versions of MKL, I don't see any redist.txt file. Yet the license still refers to redist.txt as listing the files which can be redistributed.

Where did redist.txt go? How can I legally redistribute the MKL DLLs with our application if it's not there for me to verify that the files I distribute are legal?

Related question: the MKL libraries depend on libiomp5md.dll. We could include that DLL in our installer to make it available to the end customer. However, I notice that Intel provides an installer for compiler support libraries (ww_icl_redist_msi_2017.2.187.zip, which contains two .msi files). I think it would be better for me to include the Intel-created .msi files in my installer rather than install libiomp5md.dll myself. Is this legal? I think it should be, but since I don't actually have the Intel compiler I'm not sure about the legality of distributing and installing ww_icl_redist_msi_2017.2.187 on a customer computer.
