I've receive your mail, I work actually to repair your demand.

I put the file online :
Spec URL: http://www.nerux.org/pdf/llgal.spec
SRPM URL: http://www.nerux.org/pdf/llgal-0.13.15-1.fc9.noarch.i386.rpm

For every update you should increment the release tag with updated changelog - reporting all changes you made there. 

Is this your first package ?

If yes please put FE-NEEDSPONSOR in depends on field.
You may like to do some unofficial reviews or even package new ones so as to help yourself to be sponsored.

Thanks

Sorry,

SRPM URL: http://www.nerux.org/pdf/llgal-0.13.15-2.fc9.noarch.i386.rpm

Thanks

richard, ditch the %{release} define before anyone else sees it. That's EXACTLY what the existing disttag does (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/DistTag ). Mind the additional leading dot brought in by %{dist}

Spec URL: http://www.nerux.org/pdf/llgal.spec
SRPM URL: http://www.nerux.org/pdf/llgal-0.13.15-3.fc9.noarch.i386.rpm

I'm not sure comment #7 was followed.  Please do not define %release at all.  Also, what's the point of appending ".noarch" to Release:?  ".noarch.i386.rpm" is... not a good idea.  If you want to build a noarch package, add "BuildArch: noarch".

Please don't start the Summary: with the name of the package.
  llgal - llgal generates whatever
is rather redundant.

You need to submit a src.rpm, not a built binary package.  We need to be able to build the package you submit for ourselves.

A package cannot put things in /usr/local under any circumstances.  (Well, your personal packages can do so; that's your business.  But no packages in the distro can do so.)  If the upstream insists on that, it will need to be fixed or patched.

Don't put eval in your files list.  Just use the standard defines for Perl modules.

Use macros in your files list; instead of hardcoding /usr/bin, use %{_bindir}.

This package fails to own /usr/share/llgal.

Your files list can be much simpler in any case:
  %files
  %{_bindir}/llgal
  %{_datadir}/llgal/
  %{perl_vendorlib}/*
Or at least I think that would do it; I don't have the sources to build from in order to test.

It's been a month since my last comment; I will close this ticket soon if there is no further progress.

Still no response; closing.
