------- Additional Comments From ville.skytta at iki.fi  2006-01-25 02:00 EST -------
Quick observation based on some comments here, not actually checked: the tarball
ships private copies of libglade, libmxp, pcre, sqlite3 and zlib.  Private
copies like these are problematic from the security point of view, they're hard
to track and don't benefit from the distro's updates but must be handled
individually.  And obviously they bloat binaries.

Please make sure that the built package does not use this bundled stuff where
the corresponding package is available in FC/FE.  This seems to be done for
libglade, but I did not notice it being done for pcre, sqlite and zlib.  libmxp
is not available in FC/FE, so either it should be packaged and submitted
separately and this package converted to use the "external" one, or the bundled
one used until it is available separately.
