Hello Peter,

I'm glad you agree - its been a long time coming :P

Mock is working for me and builds fine with the following changes. rpmlint is quiet.

This should now be fixed as I have started bumping the %{X} section with each
new build.

Fixed.

Fixed.

Fixed.

Fixed.

Okay, let me know if this becomes a problem. Note I am doing an svn export as
opposed to a svn checkout to lose all the usual svn cruft.

>     %{python_sitelib}/Jokosher/*.pyc

> Your %exclude line should still hold, so that's ok.

Fair point. Hopefully it now looks cleaner.
