--- Comment #7 from Lubomir Rintel <lkundrak@xxxxx> ---
0.) Please package a more recent version.

4.3.0 seems already available.

1.) Source can not be downloaded

> spread.src: W: file-size-mismatch spread-src-4.2.0.tar.gz = 736189,
> http://www.spread.org/download/spread-src-4.2.0.tar.gz = 2628
> 1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 3 warnings.

Please don't use the URL in Source tag then, but in a comment instead:

# Download it from: http://www.spread.org/download/spread-src-4.2.0.tar.gz
Source0: %{name}-src-%{version}.tar.gz

2.) Why do you ship static package?

Static linking is strongly discouraged and should be avoided whenever possible.

3.) Why do you override docdir with pkgdocdir?

Apart from that it won't build with older RPM (such as in el7 and older), it's
not a very usual thing to do and result in path names that are not stable
across package releases.

4.) Libraries are shipped in -devel packages

You probably want to include in the main or -libs package. That will need
moving the ldconfig scriptlets as well.

Thanks. I believe they are merely clarifying the legal matters without changing
the meaning and their advertising clause is very 4-clause BSDish, therefore it
should be fine for Fedora as long as nothing GPLed links to it. Adding FE_LEGAL
dependency.
