Seems to be that rpmlint needs to be fixed first... However, the warning about the not provided obsolete package is worth to think about it. As far as I can see, octave-general is a drop-in replacement for octave-forge, or even just an upstream renaming. Correct me if I'm wrong. Besides that, your package looks fine so far, due to the special set of macros for octave, I think. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
