--- Comment #13 from Petr Šabata <psabata@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
So, after checking your long dep list:

Missing build-time dependencies:
- perl itself
  - it is called in the spec file
- Log::Log4perl::Appender::File
- Log::Log4perl::Appender::Screen
- Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout
- Log::Log4perl::Layout::SimpleLayout
  - these are via tests -> Biber -> Biber::Config
- re
  - this is via tests -> Biber -> Biber::Utils
- Text::BibTeX::Name
- Text::BibTeX::NameFormat
  - these are via tests -> Biber::Input::file::bibtex

I think you can safely drop the following build-time deps:
- Business::ISBN
- Business::ISSN
- Business::ISMN
  - this code isn't tested
- Config::AutoConf
- Encode::EUCJPASCII
- Encode::HanExtra
- Encode::JIS2K
- ExtUtils::LibBuilder
  - these aren't actually used anywhere
- Getopt::Long
  - only used by the script and it's not tested
- List::MoreUtils
  - again, not used anywhere
- LWP::Simple
- LWP::Protocol::https
- Mozila::CA
  - this code isn't tested
- Pod::Usage
  - only used by the script, not tested
- Readonly
- Readonly::XS
  - not tested; furthermore, the XS variant is only recommended
    for improved performance
- Unicode::Collate
  - amusing, isn't it? It's not actually used anywhere; some of its
    submodules are but not this one -- and with the dependency
    constraint removed, you can just drop this completely
- XML::LibXSLT
  - this code isn't tested
- XML::Writer::String
  - this isn't used anywhere, not even mentioned in META;
    where did you find it?...

Now, for the runtime dependencies.  These can be dropped from the
list because rpmbuild's generators will automagically find them for you:
- autovivification
- Data::Dump
- Data::Compare
- Data::Simple
- File::Slurp
- IPC::Cmd
- IPC::Run3
- List::AllUtils
- Log::Log4perl
- Regexp::Common
- Unicode::GCString
- URI
- XML::Writer

And these just aren't needed at all:
- Encode::EUCJPASCII
- Encode::HanExtra
- Encode::JIS2K
- List::MoreUtils
- Unicode::Collate
- XML::Writer::String

Note Text::BibTeX gets autodetected too, however, it's missing the version
constraint.  Therefore keep your explicit runtime dependency and filter out the
autogenerated one, like this, on one line:

%global __requires_exclude
%{?__requires_exclude:%__requires_exclude|}^perl\\(Text::BibTeX\\)$

You also need to add this to your runtime dep list, the generators won't
pick it up:
- Unicode::Collate::Locale


That should be all for the deps, next...

The license tag is incorrect.  The README file states the distribution is
licensed under GPL+ or Artistic 2.0, however, all the code mentions Artistic
2.0 only.  I would suggest using `(GPL+ or Artistic 2.0) and Artistic 2.0'
here.

And perhaps package TODO.org as %doc, too.


Hopefully that's all there is to this review :)
