OK - Package has a correct %clean section.
OK - Package has correct buildroot
OK - Package is code or permissible content.
OK - Packages %doc files don't affect runtime.
OK - Package has rm -rf RPM_BUILD_ROOT at top of %install

See below - Headers/static libs in -devel subpackage.
See below - Spec has needed ldconfig in post and postun
See below - .pc files in -devel subpackage/requires pkgconfig
See below - .so files in -devel subpackage.
See below - -devel package Requires: %{name} = %{version}-%{release}
See below - .la files are removed.

See below - Package is a GUI app and has a .desktop file

OK - Package compiles and builds on at least one arch.
OK - Package has no duplicate files in %files.
OK - Package doesn't own any directories other packages own.
OK - Package owns all the directories it creates.
See below - No rpmlint output.
OK - final provides and requires are sane:

SHOULD Items:

OK - Should build in mock.
OK - Should build on all supported archs
OK - Should have dist tag
OK - Should package latest version

Issues:

1. Fix the description. ;)

2. The License seems to be GPLv2+ here. All the code I can see has the 'or later'
in it. Can you confirm and adjust the License tag? Also, you might ping upstream
to include a copy of the GPL and ship it once they do?

3. Minor/nitpick: Can this package (and now that I think of it, the server as well)
use %{?_smp_mflags}?

4. Might split off those devel files to a devel subpackage?
Or if there isn't much point now, perhaps remove them for now?

5. Might consider making a desktop file for the clients?

6. rpmlint says:
freenx-client.i386: W: devel-file-in-non-devel-package
/usr/include/nxcl/nxclientlib.h
freenx-client.i386: W: devel-file-in-non-devel-package /usr/include/nxcl/notQt.h
freenx-client.i386: W: devel-file-in-non-devel-package /usr/include/nxcl/nxdata.h
freenx-client.i386: W: devel-file-in-non-devel-package /usr/lib/pkgconfig/nxcl.pc
freenx-client.i386: W: devel-file-in-non-devel-package
/usr/include/nxcl/nxclientlib_i18n.h
freenx-client.i386: W: devel-file-in-non-devel-package /usr/include/nxcl/nxsession.h
freenx-client.i386: W: devel-file-in-non-devel-package /usr/lib/libnxcl.so
freenx-client.i386: W: devel-file-in-non-devel-package /usr/include/nxcl/nxcl.h
freenx-client.i386: E: library-without-ldconfig-postin /usr/lib/libnxcl.so.1.0.0
freenx-client.i386: E: library-without-ldconfig-postun /usr/lib/libnxcl.so.1.0.0

All would be fixed by nuking the devel files or shipping them in a devel subpackage.
