SRPM URL: http://ajax.fedorapeople.org/binwalk/binwalk-0.4.5-1.fc18.src.rpm
Description:
Binwalk is a tool for searching a given binary image for embedded files and
executable code. Specifically, it is designed for identifying files and code
embedded inside of firmware images. Binwalk uses the libmagic library, so it is
compatible with magic signatures created for the Unix file utility.

Comment 1 Darryl L. Pierce 2012-10-26 18:10:31 UTC
I'll take this one.

Comment 2 Darryl L. Pierce 2012-10-26 18:51:29 UTC
Initial results. Only negative is that the %install begins with:

rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT

but should not according to the fedora-review utility. However, I don't see a supporting entry in the Fedora package review checklist on the wiki. I don't consider that a blocker, so I'll go ahead an approve the package. If it IS an issue, please remove the line.
