0 errors , license is good , spec looks good 

PACKAGE APPROVED !

@Sergio, great many thanks for reviewing the package.

set Ticket status to new due "sergio" is not a packager anymore.

Picking up review.

BuildRequires:  gettext

binutils is listed twice. Drop one of these. Also, please sort them alphabetically so that this doesn't happen again.

- Add Epoch 1 to allow vdr-dvbhddevice to be installed with newer VDR versions

Can you explain why that is necessary?

LGTM otherwise.

Before the vdr main package was refactored, vdr-dvbhddevice was part of vdr, but it has now been separated from it.

In the old vdr package, dvbhddevice was still at version vdr-dvbhddevice-2.8.2-2.fc45; see
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=3058645
and is now available as a separate package with version 2.2.0^20260823git945eaa1a7d0b.
Therefore, an epoch was added so that the separate dvbhddevice package can overwrite older packages.
Sorry, I can't explain it any more simply than that.

new version:
Spec URL: https://martinkg.fedorapeople.org/Review/SPECS/vdr-dvbhddevice.spec
SRPM URL: https://martinkg.fedorapeople.org/Review/SRPMS/vdr-dvbhddevice-2.2.0%5e20260823git945eaa1a7d0b-3.fc45.src.rpm

%changelog
* Fri Sep 18 2026 Martin Gansser <martinkg> - 1:2.2.0^20260823git945eaa1a7d0b-3
- remove duplicate BR binutils

The explanation justifies the Epoch, thanks!

The package looks fine to me now, APPROVED.

The Pagure repository was created at https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/vdr-dvbhddevice
Monitoring:
Wasn't able to create project in Anitya. You can create it manually on: `https://release-monitoring.org`

@Dominik Thanks for the review.
