I've got the start to a spec file:
http://www.kobold.org/~wart/fedora/queue/tremulous.spec
http://www.kobold.org/~wart/fedora/queue/tremulous.desktop
It builds and runs fine on FC4-x86_64. But it still needs a little more
work to clean up the dependencies on the internal copy of libjpeg,
unzip, and some SDL/openal header files. And as mentioned above, there
is still the license issue to clear up.
Anyone can feel free to take over this spec. I probably won't do much
more with it as I've got a handful of other packages that I'm preparing
to submit for review.
