------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2007-11-07 11:02 EST -------
You missed a bunch of rpmlint complaints:

ski.x86_64: W: unused-direct-shlib-dependency /usr/lib64/libski-1.2.so.6.0.0
/usr/lib64/libelf.so.1
ski.x86_64: W: unused-direct-shlib-dependency /usr/lib64/libski-1.2.so.6.0.0
/lib64/libncurses.so.5

The libski-1.2.so is linked against those two libraries even though it doesn't
call any functions in them.

ski.x86_64: W: undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib64/libski-1.2.so.6.0.0 
force_user
ski.x86_64: W: undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib64/libski-1.2.so.6.0.0 userint
ski.x86_64: W: undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib64/libski-1.2.so.6.0.0 
sim_root_len
ski.x86_64: W: undefined-non-weak-symbol /usr/lib64/libski-1.2.so.6.0.0 sim_root

and over 300 more similar messages.

The library calls those functions, but isn't linked against any library which
provides them.

Otherwise I think this package looks OK, but I don't know enough about the
software to know to know if the above issues are problematic.  I suspect that
the unused-direct-shlib-dependency warnings are merely inefficiencies (libraries
pulled in when they're not needed) and that the undefined-non-weak-symbols are
provided by libraries which are linked into the executables which also link
against libski-1.2.so.  Still, this package included a -devel subpackage
indicating that libski might be used separately from its executables, and so the
library should actually be linked against the libraries it needs if possible.
