I had not read that page before. Now I understand why the dist tag is useful.  I
will post a new revision with the dist tag.

>   - For vim-scala, is it sufficient to require only vim-common?

I am guessing that you wonder this because vim-common does not provide
/usr/share/vim/vimfiles/{ftdetect,indent,syntax}. I will file a bug against the
vim package because I think vim-common should own these directories. Another
package (vim-vimoutliner) also installs to
/usr/share/vim/vimfiles/{colors,ftdetect,ftplugin,syntax} so until vim-common
provides these directories I request a variance for installing files into these
un-owned directories.

Those packages are mainly addons to various editors to provide syntax
highlighting for scala files. They do not actually call to scala in any way
(with the exception of the emacs mode, but this is an optional feature).  It
seems useful to allow syntax highlighting without having scala installed.

Will address in new revision

I think the new revision should fix these

I made a silly mistake.  I will fix this in the new revision.

> B. rpmlint

My new package should fix most of these, if not all.

I have also decided not to package the source codes in scala-devel so I will
rename it to ant-scala since all it will be is the classpath file to allow the
use of scala from ant.
