The library could be succesfully imported. abootimg -h returns the usage and the man page can read [+] SHOULD: If scriptlets are used, those scriptlets must be sane. [+] SHOULD: Usually, subpackages other than devel should require the base package using a fully versioned dependency. [+] SHOULD: The placement of pkgconfig(.pc) files depends on their usecase, and this is usually for development purposes, so should be placed in a -devel pkg. A reasonable exception is that the main pkg itself is a devel tool not installed in a user runtime, e.g. gcc or gdb. [+] SHOULD: If the package has file dependencies outside of /etc, /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, or /usr/sbin consider requiring the package which provides the file instead of the file itself. [+] SHOULD: Packages should try to preserve timestamps of original installed files.
I should mention that the previous review was only an informal review as part of my sponsorship process.

I tried the instructions again and it worked. I must have made a mistake when constructing the command. Is there a way to automatically generate it or do I have to copy and paste the variables? If the three warnings reported by rpmlint (File Permissions, %clean and BuildRoot tag) are no longer required, do you know why rpmlint reports this?. It seems that many of the checks above could be automated, any idea why a specific Fedora test is not available?
Laurence, >Is there a way to automatically generate it or do I >have to copy and paste the variables? this will not help in this case but when the Source is a URL with versions in you can at least run. spectool package.spec to give the URL. Yanko, The informal review is a good review as are your following comments. One change, can you preserve the timestamp on the man page, i.e add -p on install -D -m 644 debian/abootimg.1 ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/%{_mandir}/man1/abootimg.1 before import. Assuming that's okay with you. APPROVED. Steve
Thanks. The flag is still "?" tho 0.6-3.20110830gitff8e759 - Preserve man page timestamp on install. Spec URL: http://declera.com/~yaneti/abootimg/abootimg.spec SRPM URL: http://declera.com/~yaneti/abootimg/abootimg-0.6-3.20110830gitff8e759.fc17.src.rpm
