I will answer as rpmorphan developper :

- for the "orphan" terminology, I began to work on this project when no other
tools exists for rpm packages. The idea comes from debian tools : deborphan, so
I adopt the debian terminology. Please note that the spec description already
tries to give a definition :"It determines which packages have no other
packages depending on their installation"

- for the perl-tk dependency : rpmorphan can work without Tk, this is not a
"required" dependency, just optional. Another Gui is provided, based on ncurses
(perl module Curses::UI), so if Tk is added, you should add Curses too.

- for the licence info : it is already included in all perl scripts. In which
files should I add it ?

I will merge my own spec file with the fedora ones.
