This is F17 feature: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Ns3
We are a bit late on the schedule because of coordination with upstream regarding building with GCC 4.7. It should mostly work now. Since this is not an invasive change, it shouldn't be a problem.
Package wise, ns-3 is a C++ library; aside from the fact that upstream requested versioned SONAMEs and packaging both debug and optimized libs, there is not much special stuff to see here.
I would like some general comments on the approach and structure. I know that specfile isn't ready for inclusion since too much is commented out and it needs substantial cleanup; I'm aware of that, that's the easy part that I will do once I get green light on this approach to packaging.
Be warned, since we are still packaging pre-relase stuff, the source code archive is quite large since it contains hg/bzr repodata. This will definitely be sorted out before inclusion.
