http://firewing.fedorapeople.org/pub/SRPMS/boxbackup-0.11-0.1.rc2.20090721svn.fc11.src.rpm
Description:
Box Backup is a completely automatic on-line backup system. Backed up files
are stored encrypted on a filesystem on a remote server, which does not need
to be trusted. The backup server runs as a daemon on the client copying only
the changes within files, and old versions and deleted files are retained. It
is designed to be easy and cheap to run a server and (optional) RAID is
implemented in userland for ease of use.

rpmlint has no output for the debuginfo or SRPM packages.

$ rpmlint boxbackup-0.11-0.1.rc2.20090721svn.fc11.x86_64.rpm
boxbackup.x86_64: E: non-standard-dir-perm /etc/boxbackup/bbackupd 0700
--> Tighter permissions because the backup client's certificates and encryption
keys are stored here
boxbackup.x86_64: W: incoherent-subsys /etc/rc.d/init.d/bbackupd $prog
boxbackup.x86_64: W: incoherent-subsys /etc/rc.d/init.d/bbackupd $prog
--> Can be ignored, $prog is "bbackupd"
boxbackup.x86_64: W: incoherent-init-script-name bbackupd ('boxbackup',
'boxbackupd')
--> boxbackup and boxbackup-server make for better package names
1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 1 errors, 3 warnings.

$ rpmlint boxbackup-server-0.11-0.1.rc2.20090721svn.fc11.x86_64.rpm
boxbackup-server.x86_64: W: non-standard-uid /etc/boxbackup/bbstored boxbackup
--> The box backup daemon drops privileges and runs as boxbackup, so
/etc/boxbackup/bbstored should not be owned by root (see note about permissions
below)
boxbackup-server.x86_64: E: non-standard-dir-perm /etc/boxbackup/bbstored 0700
--> This directory cannot be set to 755 to solve the ownership problem above
because this folder stores the server's certificates and needs to be kept
private.
boxbackup-server.x86_64: W: incoherent-subsys /etc/rc.d/init.d/bbstored $prog
boxbackup-server.x86_64: W: incoherent-subsys /etc/rc.d/init.d/bbstored $prog
--> Can be ignored, $prog is "bbstored"
boxbackup-server.x86_64: W: incoherent-init-script-name bbstored
('boxbackup-server', 'boxbackup-serverd')
--> boxbackup and boxbackup-server make for better package names
