*** Bug 561464 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Self-review:

Looks good for most part, builds find in mock/koji and passes most review guidelines. 

A couple of specifics though:

Even though this is in the orphaned specfile, the following line doesn't work (try it yourself):
find -name '*.jar' -o -name '*.class' -exec rm -f '{}' \;

You can replace it w/ this if you want:
find \( -name '*.class' -o -name '*.jar' \) -exec rm -rf {} \;

or this:
find ./ -name '*.jar' -exec rm -f '{}' \;
find ./ -name '*.class' -exec rm -f '{}' \;

As far as the changelog you have a typo, "Jun 2010" should be "Jan 2010". 

Also why did you remove the previous entries from the changelog http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/jcodings/F-11/jcodings.spec?view=markup

I would leave those in and add a bit about gcj support being removed for jcodings. I had tried getting gcj/jcodings working myself to no avail, aot-compile-rpm blocks indefinetly, consuming more and more resources. If you can figure out the problem, adding gcj support is easy, if not just add a note to the changelog.

First of all, thanks for review.

The clause with "find" was only a line that has not been changed in the spec. So, I've considered it as a new package, and a history, from my viewpoint, is not interesting for anybody. Nevertheless, if you prefer then I'll save the changelog.

As the package was orphaned more than three months and it also has been deprecated I guess it is an updated package. Hence, I use the following rule:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Java#Java_on_Fedora
"... AOT compilation using GCJ has been deprecated (made optional) and new or updated packages will be built using OpenJDK to produce regular Java bytecode. ..."

I don't see any reasons to save gcj bits in the package. The F12 release doesn't include this package, therefore it is a proof that there are not any existing dependencies on the gcj bits of this package, and it can be removed without any problems. 
And also, I think, it is clear why so dangerously use of a "Java" environment that has not passed the testing via Java Compatibility Kit.
I guess we shouldn't spend the time on support of the deprecated technology.

The second release is prepared for review:
Spec URL: http://victorv.fedorapeople.org/files/jcodings.spec
SRPM URL: http://victorv.fedorapeople.org/files/jcodings-1.0.2-2.fc13.src.rpm

Great, thanks for both of these.

Ya, think it's good to leave it in, not only for the specfile but just so we can see the package maintainer history and that it matches up w/ the cvs commit history.
