Hello. Nice to see you here.
 
> I see you have many problems to compile Bouml and this is a big surprise

Not many problems really. The issue was handling the value of BOUML_LIB for
ppc64 and x86_64 systems. We tried to fiddle with the CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS used
by qmake, which complicated things a bit, and we finally gave up trying to do that.

Sure. I will let you know the links to the RPMs for various architectures and
distribution versions once this review is approved.

Once the package is approved, it will become part of Fedora and be available
from the official Fedora repositories.  Whether it will be in the CD-ROMs or
DVDs is something I can not tell, yet.

Therefore all users need to do is:
# yum install bouml
...to install it. However this behaviour will be restricted to users of Fedora
Core 6 (if demanded), Fedora 7 and Rawhide (ie. Fedora development snapshot).

http://rishi.fedorapeople.org/bouml-2.29.1-1.fc8.src.rpm is only a temporary URI
being used for the purposes of this review request.

"fc8" stands for "Fedora Collection 8", which refers to the   version of the
package built for Rawhide (Fedora 8 is going to be the next Fedora release).

> Best regards and thank you to compile Bouml for Fedora users

Thanks for creating such a wonderful tool. Folks at my workplace make extensive
use of it.

There are a few things which need fixing at your end, though.

1. The file src/diagram/DiagramWindow.cpp  has the executable bit set. I think
it should have 644 as the mode.

2. The projectControl and projectSynchro  symlinks should be relative (targets
should be ../lib/bouml/projectControl and ../lib/bouml/projectSynchro) and not
absolute as they are now. This is helpful if the prefix is not '/usr' but
something else.

3. Remove  Applications from Categories in the .desktop files.
