Well, you are the first one to think I am not a good reviewer. But I won't go
against your wishes.

You know that it was a typo and you know that I got the right SRPM (BTW, I just
browsed the correct directory in fedorapeople and got the only SRPM there). Why
are you even annoying me with this?

Because version 0.3.1 is not a PRE-release. It'a RELEASE. Therefore your relase
tag is wrong and it MUST NOT start with a 0.

Again. You are just trying to annoy me. I just tryed to help.

You don't even know what you are talking about.

I read SHOULD. Don't you?

Anyway the Guidelines suggest the other URL because it is not supposed to
change over time.

Because it's no longer needed?

hicolor-icon-theme owns the directory where you install the icon files. Just
type 
"rpm -ql hicolor-icon-theme" to understand it.

Sure. Mine too. It was just a friendly suggestion.

Again, just a friendly suggestion. 

%{_pkgdocdir} expands correctly even for older versions of Fedora or RHEL where
docs where installed in %{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version}.

Actually the packager is supposed to do this clean up.

Yes, it does not complain but the review guidelines tell you to do so because
otherwise "your package could fail to generate translation files in the
buildroot"

Have you bothered to read the Guidelines? Especially the section "Why do we
need to use %find_lang?"?
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines?rd=Packaging/Guidelines#Why_do_we_need_to_use_.25find_lang.3F

No, beacuse you don't know if they are overwritten by other flags if you
actually cannot read them.

And it does not!

Those are not my wishes. Some of them are MUST items and you must fulfill them
before any reviewer can actually approve this review. The others are SHOULD
items and they are just suggestions to improve your packager's skills. You
should really start listening to other experienced packagers instead of
annoying people.

Good luck finding another reviewer!
