Hi,

Full review done:

Good:
- rpmlint checks return:
  3 packages and 1 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 0 warnings.
- package meets naming guidelines (but not versioning, see below)
- package meets packaging guidelines
- license (GPLv3) OK, but text not in %doc, matches source
- spec file legible, in am. english
- source matches upstream
- package compiles on devel (x86)
- no missing BR
- no unnecessary BR
- no locales
- not relocatable
- owns all directories that it creates
- no duplicate files
- permissions ok
- macro use consistent
- code, not content
- no need for -docs
- nothing in %doc affects runtime
- no need for .desktop file

Needs work:
-The Source0 and Source1 urls are wrong, we've a preferred down url form for
sf.net, see:
 http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:SourceURL#Sourceforge.net
-The generated manpage is rubish, it contains the same bit twice, and then a
reference to the non-existent texinfo documentation. Luckily Debian has already
packaged nmon and provides a manpage for us :)  See:
ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/debian/pool/main/n/nmon/nmon_13g+debian-1.debian.tar.gz
-Drop the now no longer needed "BuildRequires:  help2man"
-The lmon14g.c file does not contain a clear copyright-header, and upstream
does not provide a copy of the GPLv3 (typically upstream provides a
COPYING.txt), this is not a blocker, but please mail upstream asking them to do
a new release with a proper copyright-header, and while they are at it they
should add
a COPYING.txt with the GPLv3 and put all the files together in a tarbal. As
said this is not a blocker for getting this package into Fedora, but you *MUST*
mail upstream asking them to do better for their next release. While mailing
upstream, please attach the Debian manpage and ask them to add that to the
tarbal too.
-manpages should not be marked %doc

Regards,

Hans
