Thank you for looking at this.

I've updated the spec file, and also the app. It was missing a man page and I had a helper in /usr/bin which I've moved to /usr/libexec.

I've realised I reported this bug with the wrong account... not the one linked to FAS. I've resubmitted here... https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2564480
