> Can't give a working source url for sourceforge-hosted projects.

It used to be easier a few months ago.
The generic URL is

  http://dl.sf.net/%{name}/%{name}-%{version}.tar.*
  http://download.sourceforge.net/%{name}/%{name}-%{version}.tar.*

and used to point to a round-robin DNS mirroring system. However,
nowadays the system refuses to work and includes a host which
doesn't respond.

As a work-around, one can still use a prefix for a known mirror, e.g.

  http://umn.dl.sf.net/libexif/libexif-0.6.13.tar.bz2
  http://us.dl.sf.net/libexif/libexif-0.6.13.tar.bz2
  http://osdn.dl.sf.net/libexif/libexif-0.6.13.tar.bz2
  http://mesh.dl.sf.net/libexif/libexif-0.6.13.tar.bz2

and so on.

* A different release of this library may need "BuildRequires: gettext"
or else would build without message object files. This version doesn't,
but the configure script searches for gettext.
