A few additional random thoughts on this package:
* On Fedora there's already an /sbin/pvs (provided by lvm2), and /sbin is now
in many users'  paths.  Is this likely to cause trouble?
* I see a "Provides:", that's good.  Should it provide
"prototype-verification-system" instead of "pvs", since "pvs" has other
meanings?
* It seems to me that PVS should have a desktop entry, as defined by
http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/
  That way, people can invoke it from the GUI, and double-click on ".pvs" files
to invoke things correctly.  Something like this in pvs.desktop:
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=Prototype Verification System (PVS)
Comment=A verification system (a specification language integrated with support
tools and a theorem prover).
TryExec=pvs
Exec=pvs %F
#  Icon=fooview
MimeType=image/x-pvs;

(Obviously, such a desktop entry should be submitted upstream, so that in the
long term everyone will package it up & they'll maintain the desktop entry.)
