connections for both clients and servers.

- rpmlint output:
W: skstream-devel no-documentation

okay to ignore, I don't see any documentation which should go in devel

- package is named according to package naming guidelines
- spec filename matches package %{name}
- package meets package naming guidelines
- package licensed with open source compatible license
- license field matches actual license
- license included in %doc
- spec file written in American english
- spec file is legible
- sources match upstream
0c5ec89551bc0900b2e708992f321794  skstream-0.3.5.tar.gz
- package successfully compiles and builds on x86_64 FC-5
- All build dependencies listed in BuildRequires, optional dependencies not
listed (zlib)
- package does not contain locales
- ldconfig properly called in %post/%postun
- package is not relocatable
- package owns all directories it creates
- package does not contain any duplicate files
- permissions on files is set properly
- package contains proper %clean section
- macro usage is consistant
- package contains permissible content
- package does not contain large documentation
- files in %doc do not affect runtime
- header files are contained in devel package
- pkgconfig files are in devel package
- library files w/o suffix are in devel
- devel package requires base package
- package does not contain .la files
- package does not own files or directories owned by other packages


==== MUST ====
- Add Requires: pkgconfig to devel package
- Explain why this is not compiled with optional zlib library
- contact upstream about make docs error

==== NOTES ====
- make check has some failures, but these are okay, they require the echo
service to be enabled or be run as root.  I enabled echo on my system and ran
make check as root and these tests pass.

Done.

I don't see that zlib is used anywhere?  When I added BR: zlib-devel and
compared the build logs, I didn't see any difference.  Where did you see
something that indicated that zlib could be used?

> - contact upstream about make docs error

Will do.

oh the configure file checks for zip for some reason, not zlib, sorry.

AC_CHECK_PROG(SK_ZIP, zip, zip, no)

Ill go ahead and approve this, but might be worth finding out why zip is checked.

As best as I can tell from grepping and browsing the Makefiles, this is only
used during a Windows build for the Windows installer.  It doesn't seem to make
any difference on linux.

Imported and built for rawhide.

Thanks!
