There was discussion on this theme - http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.extras.packaging/6214/focus=6224 And accordingly it proposed draft guidelines change - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/Tabs So, there many people argue with your arguments. So, I think until it is only draft and FESCO do not approve that, it can't be as required item. > - typo: pathes -> paths > - wording: IMHO "performant" isn't an Enlish word, probably just use "fast" Sure? http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/performant But if you want, I replace it by productive.

I'm change it as you like see it for only do not start new long flame-war. But this is very similar to tab-width space. In Fedora we even not have (as I known) some recommended "coding standards" or similar documents/guidelines/policies. So, than it can't be error at all! > > - please order the patches by number Ok. > > * %description: TODO (minor) > - Although "x11vnc" is a name, I would start it with a capital "C" at the > beginning of the sentence. Capital "X" I think? I'm unsure. BTW, I reorder sentence, please see. > - In the second sentence I think the comma can be omitted. Ok. > * Patch0: TODO > During the review I was wondering that x11vnc is neither linked against the > lzo library nor the minilzo library.

Yes, you are right. Today, after linking with system libvncserver. > * Compilation: TODO > - the first 2 lines which exports the CFLAGS and the LDFLAGS should not be > necessary Ok. > * BuildRequires: TODO > - most likely lzo-devel can be omitted Ok. > * packaged files and directories: TODO > It looks like that /usr/share/x11vnc is packaged although it is empty. > Please don't package it.
