(There probably used to be a review in Extras.)

* Licensing problems:
  * src/fopen.c contains:
    > 2. Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright
    >    notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the
    >    documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution.
    - the BSD advertising clause, incompatible with GPL
  * src/snprintf.c uses the "Frontier Artistic License", AFAICS never approved
    for Fedora (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing)
  (In both cases the functionality is probably unnecessary and the files could
  be removed from the source tarball)
  * LICENSE-snprintf.txt is not provided in %doc

* rpmlint:
  > aide.x86_64: W: log-files-without-logrotate /var/log/aide
  Can the log file grow without bounds?

* Uses %makeinstall, is it necessary? Makefile.in seems to support DESTDIR.

* Uses %define, should use %global instead

* Low-severity:
  * The "nostatic" macro is defined, but not used
  *

All findings have been addressed in aide-0.13.1-16 except the license issues.
This is going to be handled by a new upstream release.

aide-0.14-0.1.rc1 was built to address all problems found in this package
review. Please let me know if there is anything else that needs attention.
Thanks.
