Berkeley Lab Checkpoint/Restart for Linux (BLCR)

This package implements system-level checkpointing of scientific applications
in a manner suitable for implementing preemption, migration and fault recovery
by a batch scheduler.

BLCR includes documented interfaces for a cooperating applications or
libraries to implement extensions to the checkpoint system, such as
consistent checkpointing of distributed MPI applications.
Using this package with an appropriate MPI implementation, the vast majority
of scientific applications which use MPI for communucation on Linux clusters
are checkpointable without any modifications to the application source code.

You must also install the %{name}-libs package and a %{name}-modules_* package
matching your kernel version.
A short description for the package (usually, the %description from the spec
file). 

This is not eligible because it needs a kmod.  I have packaged that separately
as blcr-kmod using akmods.

rpmlint RPM/SRPMS/blcr-0.6.4-1.src.rpm [silence]

blcr-devel.x86_64: W: no-documentation
blcr-devel.x86_64: W: no-dependency-on blcr
blcr-libs.x86_64: E: library-not-linked-against-libc /usr/lib64/libcr.so.0.2.1
blcr-libs.x86_64: E: library-not-linked-against-libc /usr/lib/libcr.so.0.2.1
blcr-testsuite.x86_64: W: no-documentation

no-doc: Seems trivial
no-dependency-on blcr: I think this is correct.  blcr is userland utils only.
devel depends only on libs because libs has the shared libs that devel needs.
Not linked against: This is a problem in upstream.  They are aware of it and
say it will be fixed in the next version.

This is my first rpmfusion pkg.
