Spec URL: http://tadej.fedorapeople.org/techne.spec
SRPM URL: http://tadej.fedorapeople.org/techne-0.2-1.fc13.src.rpm
Description:
Techne is a general purpose, programmable physical simulator and renderer.
It reads in a set of scripts wherein every aspect of a physical system is
specified and then proceeds to simulate and render the system onscreen.

A showcase for Techne are the Billiards cue sports simulator:
http://www.nongnu.org/billiards/
and the Aviation flight simulator:
http://www.nongnu.org/aviation/

Techne is a prerequisite for packaging both Billiards and Aviation for Fedora.

A few notes to the reviewer:
1) A version of ode >= 0:0.11.1-5 is required by Techne, because it includes
the ode-double subpackage (see:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=574034)
It is included in rawhide, but it is not available in F14 and F13 yet.
The koji builds for F14 and F13 are here:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=204178 (F14)
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2639094 (F13)

2) Techne 0.2 hasn't been officially released yet, but I'm contact with its
author, who provided me with the unofficial tarball. The unofficial tarball is
included in the SRPM.

3) rpmlint gives 4 warnings:
techne.spec: W: no-cleaning-of-buildroot %clean
techne.spec: W: no-buildroot-tag
techne.spec: W: no-%clean-section
techne.spec: W: invalid-url Source0:
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/techne/techne-0.2.tar.gz HTTP Error
404: Not Found

The first 3 are invalid, because the Fedora Packaging Guidelines states that
BuildRoot tag and %clean section are not required for F13 and above.
The last warning is the consequence of Techne 0.2 not being officially released
yet.
