    E: hotwire no-changelogname-tag
    W: hotwire redundant-prefix-tag

    W: hotwire no-documentation
    E: hotwire no-changelogname-tag

 [!] Package is not relocatable.

 [x] Package is licensed with an open-source compatible license and meets other
legal requirements as defined in the legal section of Packaging Guidelines.
 [x] License field in the package spec file matches the actual license.
     License type: GPL
 [!] If (and only if) the source package includes the text of the license(s) in
its own file, then that file, containing the text of the license(s) for the
package is included in %doc.
 [x] Spec file is legible and written in American English.
 [x] Package is not known to require ExcludeArch, OR:
     Arches excluded:

 [-] Package does not contain any libtool archives (.la).
 [!] Package contains a properly installed %{name}.desktop file if it is a GUI
application.
 [x] Package does not own files or directories owned by other packages.


=== Issues ===
1. name, version, and release macros will be defined by Name, Version,
   and Release fields, so you don't need to explicitly define them.
2. A more appropriate Group could be used.
3. BuildRoot should be chosen from one of the options in the packaging
   guidelines:
  
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#head-b4fdd45fa76cbf54c885ef0836361319ab962473
4. Relocatable packages are discouraged, so Prefix can be ommitted.
5. Vendor should not be set.
6. COPYING and README should be included as docs
7. A changelog should be included in the spec file.
8. The package should include BuildRequires: python-devel
9. The BuildRequires: on pygtk2-devel is unnecessary
10. The package should require python.
11. The package should own hotwire and hotwire_ui python site-packages dirs.
12. The python sitelib macro could be used, as described here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Python#head-875cc97c2232a5b3ceda75ea41eed525da7d3929


Please fix the above issues.
