ok

ok, but you don't need the --whatprovides 
rpm -q --queryformat='%{VERSION}' kernel-headers should be enough
also buildrequire kernel-headers for this

ok

yes rpmlint got updated
=> rpmlint-0.80-3.fc7 should know about the new license tags.

sry confused the summary with the description this is ok.

%dist should be fc7 (fedora collection 7) so you should be fine there or did I
miss anything? btw this is only a cosmetic change.

-----------

The package fails to build here:
   SYMLINK include/base -> include/basedbs/base-2.6.22.4
Version 2.6.22.4 is not supported
is it because of the .4 ? 
if yes use 
rpm -q --queryformat='%{VERSION}' kernel-headers | cut -c 0-6
to get the kernel version.
I tested this and it complains about kernel 2.6.22 not supported.
