libnes is a simple package that provides a low level hardware driver for the
libibverbs package.  The current package requires libibverbs-1.1.3 or later to
compile, and prebuilt versions as well as the spec file and srpm can be found
on my person web page at:

http://xsintricity.com/dledford/Package_Review/

rpmlint shows the following:

[dledford at firewall rpmbuild]$ rpmlint SRPMS/libnes-0.9.0-1.fc12.src.rpm
RPMS/x86_64/libnes-*
libnes.src:12: W: unversioned-explicit-provides libibverbs-driver
libnes.x86_64: W: non-conffile-in-etc /etc/libibverbs.d/nes.driver
libnes-static.x86_64: W: no-documentation
4 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 3 warnings.

The first one is correct as it's a psuedo provides that only exists for the
purpose of causing a yum install of libibverbs to pull in all the hardware
drivers that make libibverbs operate.

The second is a side effect of the libibverbs package.  It requires the file in
this location, but the file is not user changable and should not therefore be
labeled as a conf file.

The final one is because the -static package only has one file, the static
library.  All the docs are in the base package.
