It's called gnome-desktop3 in RHEL7.

I changed Banshee's spec to:

BuildRequires: gnome-desktop3-devel

but it did not work.

See: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=8148251

I'm not sure, does banshee work with GNOME3?

The error has nothing to do with gnome:

+ desktop-file-validate /builddir/build/BUILDROOT/banshee-2.6.2-5.el7.ppc64/usr/share/applications/banshee-audiocd.desktop /builddir/build/BUILDROOT/banshee-2.6.2-5.el7.ppc64/usr/share/applications/banshee-media-player.desktop /builddir/build/BUILDROOT/banshee-2.6.2-5.el7.ppc64/usr/share/applications/banshee.desktop
See "desktop-file-validate --help" for correct usage.

Then correct the desktop file error, and see if it still won't build against
gnome3.

FYI - Filed bug 1167404 for desktop-file-validate not accepting multiple files in EL7.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 22 development cycle.
Changing version to '22'.

More information and reason for this action is here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Program_Management/HouseKeeping/Fedora22

Shouldn't the version be updated to EPEL, rather than point to Fedora 22?

Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

This issue should be re-opened. It is mislabeled for Fedora 22 and automatically closed, but it should be marked for EPEL7.

I see this issue was reopened, but it's still marked for Fedora/rawhide, instead of Fedora EPEL/epel7.

FYI there is no gnome-desktop component so I'm setting it to gnome-common.

For future reference: gnome-common is a shell script sourced by old autogen.sh scripts, plus a couple m4 macros; it's obsoleted by autoreconf and autoconf-archive.

That's because there is no gnome-desktop component in Fedora EPEL for lack of an epel7 branch (the very thing you are asking for).  Therefore, when asking for an EPEL branch for a package already in Fedora, the bug has to be built against the Fedora component.

Not a contradiction.  gnome-desktop and gnome-desktop3 are separate packages in Fedora too.
