You have essentially duplicated Dan's RPM work, see http://gitweb.dwcab.com/?p=pound.git;a=summary . In this case, duplication is good, because it helps to spot errors. Please continue this good work, e.g., by building dependencies of the MOC player (or any other useful package), see http://moc.daper.net/links . -- Alexander E.
