Hi Nils, Jussi :)

Thank you for reviewing it so quickly. I have made the necessary changes:

(In reply to comment #3)
> BAD: The license as in LICENSE is acceptable for Fedora, but unzix.c is
> licensed as "Copyright (C) 2009 Mukund Sivaraman. All rights reserved." without
> a mention of the BSD license. I know you're a good guy and won't use this
> against someone, but this needs to be fixed ;-). For the remainder of the
> review I'm assuming that the stated new BSD license holds.

I have changed the source code accordingly, and have made a new release. You
can browse the code here: https://banu.com/cgit/unzix/

> BAD: rpmlint indicates errors:
> 
>     unzix.x86_64: E: explicit-lib-dependency zlib
>     unzix.x86_64: W: empty-%pre
>     unzix.x86_64: W: empty-%post
>     unzix.x86_64: W: empty-%preun
>     unzix.x86_64: W: empty-%postun
>     3 packages and 1 specfiles checked; 1 errors, 4 warnings.

Removed.

>     --> remove "Requires: zlib", empty scriptlets

Removed.

> CHECK: Spec file must be written in American English: In the description it's
> probably rather "... extracting files from archives in the WinZix format." (I'd
> leave out "new" as this will change over time) and the changelog entry should
> rather be "Initial rpm package" or "... packaging" IMO. Language lawyering
> works best late in the evening ;-).

Changed.

(In reply to comment #2)
> - In case the man page compression format changes, it's better to use
>  %{_mandir}/man1/%{name}.1.*
> instead of
>  %{_mandir}/man1/%{name}.1.gz

Changed.

The new files can be browsed here:

http://mukund.org/tmp/unzix.spec-2
  (the "-2" is a temporary URL suffix so you can diff the changes from orig)
http://mukund.org/tmp/unzix-0.3.0-1.fc14.src.rpm

Please review them and tell me if all looks good. :)
