I'm not trying to overtake the package. Like I said in the other bug, I made a 
mistake and recognized that. But as I am exercising my package work, I made my 
last available SPECS and SRPMS for the maintainer (Richard June) to use it (I 
already did it before Aurelien duplicated my bug). Since my spec conforms with 
many things noted by the reviewer, he can use it freely to learn and get this 
package available in Extras on short-time.

I sent an e-mail to him early talking about this, asking him if he still wants 
to maintain the package, and pointing my work so that if he wants to maintain, 
he can use a more-correct specfile ;)

It is a great idea, but if he wants to maintain the package and use my 
specfile, he can do it and I will not want any credits for it :P Just think of 
it as a replacement for my mistake (not looking in FE-NEW bug).

I'll wait an answer from him, and one more time: I am very sorry about this 
issue! This won't happen again.
