Link to the SRPM: http://it-internet-service.de/fedora/taxbird-0.15-1.f12.src.rpm

Regards,
Dirk

> %{_datadir}/*

The tarball looks like translation objects are built. Hence:

Upon sending my comment, bugzilla said:

Is that the reason why review bug 567240 has stalled, too?

Well bug 567240 stalled, because the submitter preferred not to returned to his package's review - It probably would have been better to close the whole package submission chain, but I seemingly missed to do so.

Comment 6 Jason Tibbitts 2010-11-16 19:59:31 UTC
The ticket this depends on was closed due to lack of response; this should be closed as well.
