It's not a barrier, you just likely want to fix the description.
Thanks. Will be done.

A couple of random comments: That's not an srpm you're linking to. I really hate to say this but I feel I must. These pictures are not very good. The really aren't the kind of thing I personally feel we'd want to put on every Fedora mirror and make available to every Fedora user. I'm pretty sure all of the desktop environments (Gnome included) have a screensaver that will show images placed in a folder. Probably even from an account on one of the picture sharing services (flickr, picasa, etc.). That's a far better avenue for this kind of thing. Perhaps someone else will feel differently; I wouldn't want to close this ticket simply based on my opinion. However, this ticket has been sitting around for a year now. It's a trivial review. Perhaps the other reviewers feel they can't review it because you haven't provided an srpm they can build. Or perhaps they agree with me but didn't wish to respond; I can't really say.
Let's stop mucking about and close this as WONTFIX. I suspect this is some sort of troll or attempt to subvert Fedora (if someone installed this it would have root access to their machines and we don't have close supervision of what goes into a package after it has been approved).
Well gentlemen: This is not a troll this is the author: http://rocid.ru/person/78189/ The author's page: http://shimansky.biz/ Project's page on SourceForge.net: http://sourceforge.net/projects/londonpictures/files/ For the time being I see no use continuing this package, because of the lack of quality pictures. >>>it would have root access to their machines and we don't have close supervision of what goes into a package after it has been approved). This is something rude. I would be obliged if you could name/point out the pieces of code or whatever that prove your accusations. I agree to close the ticket, for the reason I mentioned above.
