Hi Miloslav

My comments inline:

>> * The package should contain the text of the license
> It does, in /usr/share/expect-*/README:

I missed that one, thanks for pointing it out.

>> * Duplicate BuildRequires: tcl-devel (by tk-devel), libX11-devel
>> (by tk-devel), autoconf (by automake)
> Because expect explicitly refers to tcl-devel and autoconf it IMHO should
> BuildRequire it explicitly; this is unrelated to the question whether e.g.
> automake depends on autoconf.

Agreed.

> BuildRequires: libX11-devel removed, expect doesn't directly refer to libX11.

Thanks.

>> * Please use {?dist} in the Release tag
> I'd rather not;  as long as each Fedora release uses a different NEVR, the
> dist tag is IMHO just useless clutter.

There are a number of pros and cons for the disttag. One pro is that it makes it
easier to do mass rebuilds (for example for FC7-test1). You're not required to
change it, of course, but please reconsider it.
Some more pros (and cons) at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/DisttagsForRawHide

>> * Can you use make DESTDIR instead of make INSTALLROOT?
> No, Makefile.in doesn't support this aspect of GNU coding standards and
> the variable is called INSTALL_ROOT.

Ok.

Can you let me know when you've updated the spec in cvs? I'll have another look
then.

Thanks,

Ruben
