Hi Bob!
Yes, I also think about reviewing this package :P!
But I stumbled upon a weird rule (Yes! Another time :P!):
If a package contains a GUI application, then it needs to also
include a
properly installed .desktop file. For the purposes of these guidelines, a GUI
application is defined as any application which draws an X window and runs
from within that window.
(Yes it says X window, but I imagine it also applies to a Wayland window :P)
I am a bit confused by this and I shouldn't think a desktop file should be
added... for the obvious reason that lavalauncher needs arguments to be passed
so it works.
So I got back to the beginnings of the Guidelines:
The Packaging Guidelines are a collection of common issues and the
severity
that should be placed on them. While these guidelines should not be ignored,
they should also not be blindly followed. If you think that your package should
be exempt from part of the Guidelines, please bring the issue to the Fedora
Packaging Committee[1].
Where the language "must", "is required to" or
"needs to" is used, the packager
may deviate from the guideline only with approval from the packaging committee.
Please follow the procedure at the Packaging Committee[2] page for making these
requests.
