Some notes
? License
- License tag can be okay with LGPLv2 as README file
declares so, however all files under src/ directories
are actually under LGPLv2+.
Would you ask upstream about this? (as it is okay
with LGPLv2, this is not a blocker)
Will do - will report back on this asap.
* Source tarball
- The tarball in the srpm differs from what I could
download from the URL written as %SOURCE

------------------------------------------------------
ah, stupid mistake on my part (was using a .tar.gz from a "make build").
Fixed.
* Linkage error
- rpmlint shows
------------------------------------------------------
gpp4.i386: W: undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib/libgpp4.so.0.0.0 sincos
gpp4.i386: W: undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib/libgpp4.so.0.0.0 sqrt
gpp4.i386: W: undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib/libgpp4.so.0.0.0 rintf
gpp4.i386: W: undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib/libgpp4.so.0.0.0 lrint
------------------------------------------------------
For packages providing -devel subpackage these rpmlint warnings
cannot be allowed because these will cause linkage error when
using these libraries.
I guess linking to libm.so (-lm) will remove these warnings.
Fixed.
* Duplicate documents
- Generally there is no need to include a document file as %doc
to both main and -devel packages.
Fixed.
* Timestamps
------------------------------------------------------
make install DESTDIR=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT install='install -p'
------------------------------------------------------
- This should be "INSTALL='install -p'".
Fixed.
? Another rpmlint issue
------------------------------------------------------
gpp4-devel.i386: W: file-not-utf8
/usr/share/doc/gpp4-devel-1.0.4/doc/latex/csym_f_page.tex
------------------------------------------------------
- Well it may be preferable to convert this file to UTF-8,
however I am not sure if tex supports UTF-8 tex file
(at least it is well-known that platex does not support
Japanese UTF-8 tex files...)
From my experience with latex, a package has to be added to the
document (utf8)
in order for latex to understand it.
