1. Ha ha ha

No upstream site, no MD5SUM to authenticate against, no place to check
we have the latest version.  We should probably do something about that.
:-)

2. The recommended BuildRoot is:

%{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root-%(%{__id_u} -n)

3. rpmlint says:

on pirut-1.2.10-1.fc7.noarch.rpm:
E: pirut obsolete-not-provided system-config-packages
E: pirut obsolete-not-provided redhat-config-packages
E: pirut obsolete-not-provided pup
E: pirut obsolete-not-provided up2date-gnome
E: pirut obsolete-not-provided rhn-applet

on pirut-1.2.10-1.fc7.src.rpm:
W: pirut unversioned-explicit-obsoletes system-config-packages
W: pirut unversioned-explicit-obsoletes redhat-config-packages
W: pirut unversioned-explicit-obsoletes pup
W: pirut unversioned-explicit-obsoletes up2date-gnome
W: pirut unversioned-explicit-obsoletes rhn-applet

These are a bit concerning, but based on our discussion on IRC, I have	
to agree that they're probably a necessary evil.  All of these packages
provided, at one time or another, the same functionality that pirut 
does.  They're all long gone from Fedora, probably never to come back. 
I'd suggest adding Provides for the Obsoleted packages, and perhaps 
versioning the Obsoletes, but I honestly can't say what the long-term 
side effects to that might be.	Ergo, I imagine we need to just go with
what we've got.  (Besides, it's already in Core.) 

4. I'm a bit concerned about pirut's use of /etc/xdg/autostart/ -- it's
owned by gnome-session, but I'm not seeing any sort of dependency on
gnome-session.	This might be a problem.

5. Open bugs.  Holy carp!  62 open bugs!

Address #2, #4, and maybe #5 and I think we may have a deal.
