Hi,

Fixed. Changed to plain Requires.

Fixed.

These files are used to filter perl provides/requires. I think it's not
necessary to document them in spec, because it's often used and well known
technique.
These files are also NOT listed to be included in final package.

I fixed only this one:
mrtg.x86_64: W: file-not-utf8 /usr/share/doc/mrtg-2.16.2/CHANGES

Because CHANGES is real documentation file. The rest is in
/usr/share/doc/mrtg-2.16.2/contrib/* - just ideas for mrtg users over different
operating systems. I feel it's right to make it available but untouched.

I have same reason as above to don't touch these files (often examples from
other operating systems).

There are only perl modules in /usr/lib{64}/* and this it's AFAIK standard
place for them and mrtg will search them here.

This trigger is used when very old mrtg (2.9.17) is uninstalled. This warning
isn't real problem... But it was added in Feb 2003, so I think it's time to
remove it completely.

License changed to GPLv2+.

Changes are commited to the devel branch. Let me know if you have any comments
or anything else, otherwise feel free to close this review.
