[Fedora-packaging] Re: directory ownership problem

[Sanford Rockowitz]

Jason Tibbits response to my post pointed me in the right direction.  
Here's my reply to him, which I neglected to copy to the list.  The 
problem was not in the coding of spec file but rather in how 
fedora-review determines which spec file to use.

Jason,

Thanks for the swift reply.   Your request for the a link to the SRPM
pointed me in the right direction.  Even though the -n option to
fedora-review specifies the name of the spec file in the current
directory, fedora-review was using a slate spec file in the input
srpm.   So it seems to be a workflow issue, not a spec file syntax issue.
