Some quick nitpicks for your spec: 1. License must be converted to SPDX (and verified): https://codeberg.org/runiq/rpms/src/branch/main/rtirq/rtirq.spec#L7 2. You might consider using %autosetup -p1 instead of %setup and a series of %patch calls: https://codeberg.org/runiq/rpms/src/branch/main/rtirq/rtirq.spec#L32 3. You don't need to clean the buildroot in %install and you should drop the whole %clean section: https://codeberg.org/runiq/rpms/src/branch/main/rtirq/rtirq.spec#L47 https://codeberg.org/runiq/rpms/src/branch/main/rtirq/rtirq.spec#L70 4. systemd macros are in a separate package (systemd-rpm-macros), so there's no need to BR: systemd: https://codeberg.org/runiq/rpms/src/branch/main/rtirq/rtirq.spec#L23 5. I think there's nothing wrong with using /etc/default instead of /etc/sysconfig. Grub and shadow-utils are using that location, so there's a precedent and you could save some patching. 6. The upstream URL returns 404 not found (http://www.rncbc.org/jack/) 7. There's a tarball signature that you could validate: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_source_file_verification If you unretire within a week, you'll be able to claim ownership and start working on it immediately. The package has been retired after being orphaned for 6+ weeks, and if you wait another week, it'll have been retired for 8 weeks, which is the cut-off time for a new review requirement. https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Policy_for_orphan_and_retired_packages/#unorphaning_and_unretiring_packages > Thanks for having me :) You are most welcome!
