+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #990805 +++

Spec URL: http://cicku.me/winswitch.spec
SRPM URL: http://cicku.me/winswitch-0.12.19-1.fc20.src.rpm
Description: Window Switch is a tool which allows you to display running
applications on 
other computers than the one you start them on. Once an application has been 
started via a winswitch server, it can be displayed on other machines running 
winswitch client, as required.

You no longer need to save and send documents to move them around, simply 
move the view of the application to the machine where you need to access it.

> %files
> %{_datadir}/Thunar/sendto/thunar-%{name}.desktop

This directory is not owned by this package or by any Requires.

Since Thunar is probably not required to use this package, you probably want to
co-own the directory with Thunar.

> %{_libdir}/nautilus/extensions-2.0/python/nautilus_%{name}.*

This directory is also not owned by this package or by any Requires.

Since nautilus is probably not required to use this package, you probably want
to co-own this directory as well.

This package fails to build due to issues with the %files list:

> RPM build errors:

>     File not found: /home/tc/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/winswitch-0.12.19-1.fc19.x86_64/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/winswitch-0.12.19-py2.7.egg-info

Looks like you need to use %{python_sitelib} instead of %{python_sitearch} for
the second two.  I'm not sure what the deal is with nautilus.

Ah, this should use %{_prefix}/lib, not %{_libdir}.

There actually seems to be no arch-specific content here that I can see?  If
so, this package should be "BuildArch: noarch".

Links to Spec and SRPM are dead unfortunately. I was thinking about reviving
this package review now that xpra is in the repos. 

@Christopher: can you give an update on this? Thanks.
