Hi Dave!

Here are some remarks/recommendations/improvement about the spec-file.  This
applies to your ascending/blocked pkgs, too:

  * Your links are not direct linking.  You should upload them to somewhere
    direct linking is possible.  If you don't have own webspace for this, you
    possibly want to follow the instructions given here:
   
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_package_collection_maintainers#Upload_Your_Package
    After your request got approved, upload spec/srpm to there and update the
    Spec/SRPM URL-Tag in your bugs, please.

  * There are lots of obsolete BRs is the spec.  Remove them, please, so the
    spec-file focusses on the real, additionally needed ones.  See:
    https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Exceptions_2

  * doc-subpkg explicitly requires main-pkg.  This should not be the case,
    because the docs don't need binaries.  Usually someone wants to read
    the docs BEFORE installing the software.

  * For the above reason LICENSE should be packaged withing doc-subpkg, too.
    According to the guidelines this is OK.  See:
    https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Duplicate_Files

  * %defattr(-,root,root,-) is obsoleted and was only needed on rpm < 4.4.
    Even el5 shippes a more recent version of rpm.  See:
    https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#File_Permissions

Cheers,
  Björn
