Hi,

Thanks for the review!

(In reply to comment #3)

> === Issues ===
> 1. Same content i muliple subpackages (see above)

This is intentional, these files are very small, and as long as they
are identical between versions (which they are) rpm will not raise file
conflict errors (this is also how things work with header files with
multilib -devel packages).

Given the small size of the shared files I don't think that doing a -common
subpackage is worth it.

> 2. URL / Source0 URL need to be updated to new upstream location

Will do.

> 3. Maybe update to latest upstream release. 

Well the original upstream is dead and has gone 404 (dropped of the net) a few
days before I finished packaging this. It looks like Chris Ballinger is
continuing from where the original upstream left, taking the latest svn
snapshot from the original upstream and doing a 1.7 released based on that.

I've been working on packaging wolf4sdl together with Fabian Greffrath from
Debian we we're planning on starting a new upstream at sourceforge.net to have
a VCS to integrate our patches (and a bugtracker and a place to do new
releases), but then discovered about Chris Ballinger's work 2 days ago. We've
contacted Chris to work together with him to start a new upstream (including a
VCS, bugtracker, etc.). We're awaiting an answer from Chris atm.

So I would like to stay with the proven (unchanged for ages) 1.6 version and
then move to a newer upstream version once a new upstream has been established.

###

If you're ok with my answers to 1. and 3. I'll do a new version fixing 2.
