=== Issues ===

1. Summary ends with a period.

2. "Distributable" is not a valid license:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/LicensingGuidelines?highlight=%28guidelines%29%7C%28licensing%29#head-0e7556b4f56a6612e7334b142107e709b3886449

3. BuildRoot is not good:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#head-b4fdd45fa76cbf54c885ef0836361319ab962473

4. Source files should use %{name} macro.

5. The following sentence should be removed from the Italian descriptions: "E'
possibile scaricare la versione piĆ¹ aggiornata di queste pagine all'indirizzo
ftp://ftp.pluto.it/pub/pluto/ildp/man". The user should not manually download
and install the Italian man pages on his own.

6. The description file should not be packaged. This info is already used in the
metadata of the RPM.

7. smp_mflag is not used in make. If the parallel building is not supported, it
should be inserted a remark before the make invocation.

8. Man pages are encoded in ISO-8859-1. They must be converted to UTF-8.

9. Doc files have spurious executable permissions.

10. In man-pages-it-extra package a line in the description field is too long.

11. man-pages-it should Requires man, because /usr/share/man/it belongs to that
package.

12. Buildarchitecture tag is obsolete. Use Buildarch.

13. Maybe it is a good idea to define a extra_name macro too.

14. It should be wise to define macros at the beginning of the spec file.
