Spec URL: http://www.auroralinux.org/people/spot/review/new/egd.spec SRPM URL: http://www.auroralinux.org/people/spot/review/new/egd-0.9-1.fc9.src.rpm Description: EGD is an Entropy Gathering Daemon meant to be used on systems that can run GPG but which don't have a convenient (or reliable) source of random bits. It is a regular user-space program that sits around, running programs like 'w' and 'last' and 'vmstat', collecting the randomness (or at least the unpredictability) inherent in the output of these system statistics programs when used on a reasonably busy system. It slowly stirs the output of these gathering programs into a pool of entropy, much like the linux kernel device, and allows other programs to read out random bits from this pool.
Here's a quick review: + package name ok + spec macros look ok + both licenses are listed and is correctly included + spec is legible + source matches upstream sha1sum: dc1c3c0d28814c8ee870d8604c9c1603e1a44819 egd-0.9.tar.gz dc1c3c0d28814c8ee870d8604c9c1603e1a44819 egd-0.9.tar.gz.1 + builds in mock for F8 x86_64 + rpmlint is silent + no libs/*.la/-devel/etc. + dir ownership looks ok + clean exists and 'rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT' in install + installs and works-for-me I don't see any blockers so its APPROVED.
