Release 1.11 of the greatest game in the world is out. Additionally, I've built a more robust RPM of FreeCiv for RH 6.2, that also installs Gnome icons. I will be attaching my spec file plus a few related files to this report.
Created attachment 958 [details] Spec file.
Created attachment 959 [details] Gnome icons for freeciv, used by the spec file.
Created attachment 960 [details] RPM patch for freeciv.
I've updated to 1.11 and included the icons; I don't like your specfile though (it has several absolute don't!s, such as %define version, wmconfig (obsolete), modification of %description (WAY too late for that, the descriptions have been sent off to the translators weeks ago, maybe for 7.1). Also, placing the desktop file in /usr/share/gnome/apps/Games is a bad idea(tm) - it belongs to /etc/X11/applnk/Games where both gnome and kde can see it. Freeciv is hardly something KDE users wouldn't want. ;)
FYI - bug 12072 was just closed, fixing a general problem with texinfo that, so far, required every package using texinfo - including freeciv - to be patched.
