Hi Patrice and Axel,

  Sorry for the long absence, but only a few days after submitting this for
review my laptop died, and had to reformat my desktop to RedHat 5 as per our
labs standards.  But in any case, I now have a laptop again, and am returning
to packaging root.

I don't have a new package to submit yet, but I do have some comments and
questions.

Patrice:
The only apparent difference between root and root.exe seems to be that root
displays a splash screen and then calls root.exe.

I had originally not included the cernlib requirement because I thought cernlib
was not being developed anymore. At least, the last release seems to have been
in 2006.  Maybe the root people will update minicern more often then cernlib
will get updated.  From my personal preference I'd prefer minicern, but if the
Fedora standards require cernlib-utils to be used, I guess I'll make those
changes.

I thought unrar was only part of livna.  Is this up for inclusion in F10?

Also, how do I add the fedora flags?  Should I patch the Makefile to include
them, or is there a different method to include this into the spec file. The
packaging guidelines are not very clear on this matter.

I will be uploading a new package shortly, as soon as I address the issues that
Patrice brought up.  I'll be using 5.20.00 as it's been released already. 
There is a new development version in the works, but won't be released until
December 18, so I've made not attempts to update to that.
