I'm going to replace old conntrack package with this one. Spec URL: http://palevo.sgu.ru/mockbuild/7/SPECS/conntrack-tools.spec SRPM URL: http://palevo.sgu.ru/mockbuild/7/SRPMS/conntrack-tools-0.9.5-1.fc7.src.rpm Description: The conntrack-tools package contains two programs: - conntrack: the command line interface to interact with the connection tracking system. - conntrackd: the connection tracking userspace daemon that can be used to deploy highly available GNU/Linux firewalls and collect statistics of the firewall use. conntrack is used to search, list, inspect and maintain the netfilter connection tracking subsystem of the Linux kernel. Using conntrack , you can dump a list of all (or a filtered selection of) currently tracked connections, delete connections from the state table, and even add new ones. In addition, you can also monitor connection tracking events, e.g. show an event message (one line) per newly established connection.

Verify if the executable bits are desired, and remove if not. conntrack-tools.i386: W: invalid-license GPL ==> I think license for this package should be GPLv2 conntrack-tools.src: W: mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs (spaces: line 1, tab: line 9) ==>The specfile mixes use of spaces and tabs for indentation, which is a cosmetic annoyance. Use either spaces or tabs for indentation, not both. will you update package solving above messages?
conntrack-tools-0.9.5-2 at the same place but I don't really want to "fix" the 1st set of warnings, because they are, well, executable script examples, which I put in %doc by intention. Of course, if you insist, I can chmod 644 them...
I think good to chmod 644 them. I saw some of packages installs them with mode 644 and very few installs them with 755. also, you may like to use following command on final SPEC written to avoid mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs message ==>"sed -i -e 's|\t| |g' conntrack-tools.spec"
Done. conntrack-tools-...-3 at the same place.
I think it will be good if you provide SPEC as well as SRPM links each time you update package. Otherwise it needs to open download place, browse website and then search for updated SRPM and then download SRPM instead of having direct single click download for updated SRPM.

Just found one missing thing that this package used obsoletes and provides but its not according to Naming guidelines. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#head-3cfc1ea19d28975faad9d56f70a6ae55661d3c3d It should be Provides: conntrack = %{version}-%{release} Obsoletes: conntrack < 1.0-1
What the point? I'm obsoleting conntrack package (which was at 1.0-0.betasomething), but why I should provide conntrack = 0.9.5-3 (which is smaller than version I am obsoleting)
