Just a quick comment: BR gcc is not needed (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Exceptions_2)

5.2.08 was released.

Comment 3 Ralf Corsepius 2011-01-04 14:54:55 UTC

AFAIS, this package contains tons of bundled and likely outdated and obsolete libraries. Also, building this package doesn't seem to honor Fedora's RPM_OPT_FLAGS.

Provided this, I regret having to say this, but my feel is this package will need a lot of love and work until it can go into Fedora.

Comment 4 Susmit 2011-01-07 17:37:16 UTC

Is there a standard way to find out bundled libraries? I can use some help here.
Thanks.

Comment 5 Jason Tibbitts 2011-01-07 20:40:47 UTC

You read the source and look at where it comes from.

Generally if your source has multiple different authors or licenses, that's a clue.  Such things are generally caught in a licensing review, which I'd hope that you'd do a bit of before even submitting the package.

Comment 6 Susmit 2011-01-29 04:17:19 UTC

This is a bit helpful: http://packages.debian.org/lenny/praat
I am looking at them, and then will look into the code.

Comment 7 Miroslav Suchý 2012-12-16 13:13:27 UTC

Ping? Any progress here? Or we can close this review?

Comment 8 Susmit 2012-12-16 15:00:46 UTC

We can close it.

Comment 9 Christopher Meng 2013-09-03 16:26:06 UTC

Don't worry, I just packaged it.
