I made a full review. The package is in good shape. I checked the plugin and it
works fine. It doesn't seem to be in the correct ladspa categorization. It
should probably go to pitch shifters or something, but this is not a blocker
and can be fixed if there is a user request. It also built fine in koji
rawhide:
   http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2204555

But I have concerns about the licensing and the patents.

- rpmlint complains about some spelling errors
   ladspa-autotalent-plugins.src: W: spelling-error Summary(en_US) plugin ->
plug in, plug-in, plugging  
   ladspa-autotalent-plugins.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US
plugin -> plug in, plug-in, plugging      
   ladspa-autotalent-plugins.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US
chiptune -> chip tune, chip-tune, chipmunk 
   ladspa-autotalent-plugins.src: W: spelling-error %description -l en_US
formants -> formats, form ants, form-ants

which, I believe, can be ignored.


* The guidelines say:
   If (and only if) the source package includes the text of the license(s) in
its own file, then that file, containing the text of the license(s) for the
package must be included in %doc
   (from  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:ReviewGuidelines)

I think the inclusion of an external license file is not what we want. Thanks
for contacting upstream about this issue. Let's hope he will add a license
notice in his tarball.

I am also concerned about the license of the .pdf file you are bundling.
Sometimes the documentation comes with a different license than the software'
and sometimes the documentation is not free. Did you ask about the license of
the .pdf file?

The biggest question is the nature and the dates of the patents that are
mentioned in mayer_fft.c. They don't give us a patent number, I don't know how
we can check it. Any ideas? (If the patent is still effective, then the package
is rpmfusion material.)
