Description:
de is a disk editor for Linux, originally written to help recover deleted files. It has a simple ncurses interface that resembles an old version of Norton Disk Edit for DOS.

P.S. Spec file formatted by tabs with 5 space width (
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PavelAlexeev/tabsize ). Please, do not start
review if it is a problem for you.

The last release has been made 5 years ago. This software really looks deprecated, I would think twice before importing it in Fedora..

Comment 3 Pavel Alexeev 2010-11-22 10:12:32 UTC
I known what last release was many times ago. But I do not known better alternatives really. Some time ago I was search deeply. And it just works, even no any computability patches needed. I think it is good idea have its great software in Fedora.

Doesn't matter, I'm packaging WindowMaker dockapps which are sometimes even longer down than five years.

Some initial issues:

- The tab indents in the header should be tweaked a bit, for better readability.
- Use macros wherever possible: Replace all occurences of the package name
  with %{name}.
- Add a -p switch to the install calls to keep timestamps.
- The file allfs.h has the executable bit set, please remove it (of course
  the bit itself, not the file ;-)

Just FYI, Koji scratch build:

Mario, thank you for the support words.

No. You just use another tab width :) Please see initial my comment.

Good catch. Fixed.

> - Add a -p switch to the install calls to keep timestamps.
Fixed.

> - The file allfs.h has the executable bit set, please remove it (of course
>   the bit itself, not the file ;-)
And it fixed also.

Besides the issues from the spellchecker, this package looks good now.
