Thank you, Mr. Boyle.

Hmmm. The current name is the name of the document at the Linux Documentation Project, and I figured that consistency would be a good idea. The main package is some of the scripts (more are to come), and the -doc subpackage is the original HOWTO in various formats. I could make the docs the main package and put the scripts into a -scripts subpackage, I suppose, but the current naming and subpackaging are consistent with current Fedora usage. I'm open to suggestions here.

OK, done. It should show up in the next version.

I'm not sure where that came from. In any case, it should go away as soon as I put new packages up on my server.

That was the reason for the new package version, and the sole change. As with this one.

Again, new SRPM: http://www.charlescurley.com/Linux-Complete-Backup-and-Recovery-HOWTO/srpms/Linux-Complete-Backup-and-Recovery-HOWTO-2.3-3.fc7.src.rpm

And the revised spec is at the usual: http://www.charlescurley.com/Linux-Complete-Backup-and-Recovery-HOWTO/Linux-Complete-Backup-and-Recovery-HOWTO.spec

BTW, since my web page is pretty much automated, and comments for this bugzilla entry are not, the web page (http://www.charlescurley.com/Linux-Complete-Backup-and-Recovery-HOWTO.html) is authoritative for the most recent version, not bugzilla.
