It does include the package as BuildRequires. The problem is that the build of
that package removes the pkgconfig during the build process and that is what
its looking for. There is a bug filed which blocks this package in bugzilla.

Actually no its not. The COPYING file in the source package is actually a
symbolic link to /usr/share/automake-1.10/COPYING so what your seeing is likely
that file in your local file system. I've sent an email to the mailing list for
a license clarification. See here
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2009-August/msg00084.html

Copy and paste error. Will be fixed in the next srpm.

> 3)  * MUST: If a package contains library files with a suffix (e.g.
> libfoo.so.1.1), then library files that end in .so (without suffix) must go in

I'll review this and update as appropriate.

> 4)  * MUST: Packages containing GUI applications must include a %{name}.desktop

The gui is a applet so I don't think it needs one. I'll look further as there's
possibly a configuration gui too.
