I have to look at the libdir issue some more this weekend first.

Also tibbs has asked spot to look into what kind of formal guidelines would make
sense for mono applications as well.  So far there's been discussion about
redefining %{_libdir}, whether %{_datadir} vs /usr/lib is something worth
waiting for, and the security issues WRT .dlls distributed by a project that is
not its upstream.  If you have any guideline ideas or whatnot, it would be good
to email fedora-extras or jump into fedora-extras IRC to discuss them.  I'm
pretty sure that with some more formal guidelines there will be more people
willing to review mono packages.

The libdir thing is so hacky that a lot of people just don't know what would be
a good idea with mono and what would not.  I'm willing to look at it.  But
understanding the underlying issues and trying to figure out whether redefining
libdir is really needed and what other methods might be applied to fixing things
has to come before I can do a competent job of reviewing.

It would really suck if a whole slew of mono apps were approved now and we had
to chase them all down and fix them later.  And it would really suck if some of
the other mono packagers weren't as conscientious as you about fixing things
once issues were brought up and we had packages needing fixes sitting around the
repository for years.
