Here is the long awaited review for this package:

* Description: The description is insufficient. The term "root window" does not
mean much to most people. What does "displays images on the root window" mean?
I think it should be replaced by modern day terms such as "sets the wallpaper".

* rpmlint says:
    xsri.spec:20: W: setup-not-quiet
       Use a -q flag on %setup macro
    xsri.spec: E: no-cleaning-of-buildroot %install
       buildroot must be cleaned at the beginning of %install
    xsri.src: W: no-url-tag
       I guess this package does not have an URL at all, so this is fine.
    xsri.x86_64: E: zero-length /usr/share/doc/xsri-2.1.0/NEWS
       The file NEWS is empty, doesn't need to be packaged.
    xsri.x86_64: W: incoherent-version-in-changelog 2.1.0-15
['1:2.1.0-15.fc10', '1:2.1.0-15']
       Typo? Can be fixed easily.

* Group:     System Environment/Base
    Is this the best one to pick?

* We prefer %defattr(-,root,root,-)

* BuildRequires: gtk2-devel >= 1.3.13
    From the guidelines: "if the lowest possible requirement is so old that
nobody has a version older than that installed on any target distribution
release, there's no need to include the version in the dependency at all."
    gtk2-1.3 is ancient, so no need to use the specific version here.

* Parallel make must be supported whenever possible. If it is not supported,
this should be noted in the SPEC file as a comment.


I added Jason Tibbitts to the CC since he's the last known maintainer.
