Thank you for the pointer on PPC, I will try to contact him soon.


> fix_lib_path.patch

I used this trick to differentiate i386 and x86_64 library path since I have
seen this code in ALSA source a long time ago. In this case, I think that your
simple solution is much better than this old trick! I have updated the patch
with this one.


> "man 8 tsocks" refers to /lib/libtsocks.so

The upstream author recommend putting the library directly in /lib to be
available at boot time. I don't personally think it's the good place, so I
changed the library folder and just fixed the documentation.


> Some additional run-time testing ... Doesn't work

You are right, this option didn't work as planned. I use tsocks since four
years and never used that feature! The problem is directly at the start of
upstream bash script. I have fixed and tested it


Also, I have changed the patchs file name to be more consistent with
guidelines. I have also removed INSTALL from %doc as I don't think it's
necessary.


rpmlint give the same warnings/errors and package build fine in mock.


Thank you for your feedback!
