$ rpmlint -i ../RPMS/noarch/shorewall-perl-4.0.4-1.fc7.noarch.rpm 
shorewall-perl.noarch: E: useless-explicit-provides perl(Shorewall::Ports)
This package provides 2 times the same capacity. It should only provide it
once.

--> This is bogus, and is caused by a problem with the way rpm generates
automatic Provides. The package contains a perl script (buildports.pl) which
parses /etc/services and /etc/protocols to generate a module Ports.pm. This is
done at package build time. Because buildports.pl contains the text "package
Shorewall::Ports;" which it echo's out to Ports.pm during generation, RPM
believes that both Ports.pm and buildports.pl provide Shorewall::Ports. This
could be solved by not including buildports.pl in the package, but this file has
utility for people who make local mods to /etc/services or /etc/protocols.

shorewall-perl.noarch: W: empty-%pre
shorewall-perl.noarch: W: empty-%post
shorewall-perl.noarch: W: empty-%preun

--> These 3 can be ignored.
