--- Comment #22 from Benson Muite <[email protected]> ---
Comments:
a) Development (unversioned) .so files in -devel subpackage, if present.
  Note: Unversioned so-files directly in %_libdir.
  See:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_devel_packages
  The unversioned .so files should be in the devel package.  These typically
  softlink to versioned .so files in the main package.
b) Is it possible to apply patches to a recent snapshot from
https://sourceforge.net/projects/aubit4gl/
  and then build from this?  For example one could download 
 
https://sourceforge.net/code-snapshots/svn/a/au/aubit4gl/aubit4gl_code/aubit4gl-aubit4gl_code-r12788.zip
c) Can you try to get your changes incorporated in the upstream source?  
  This will make it easier for other projects that wish to use aubit4gl within
Fedora.  
d) Code builds but not on s390x
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/fed500/aubit4gl-review/build/4958117/
  s390x is not essential though.
e) The archive aubit4gl-20221019.r12787.tar.bz2 contains many files in the .svn
directory.  If getting
   a specific snapshot, these are not needed. The archive:
   
https://sourceforge.net/code-snapshots/svn/a/au/aubit4gl/aubit4gl_code/aubit4gl-aubit4gl_code-r12788.zip
   does not contain .svn files, and also has the sources for the tests and
documentation.
f) Parallel make probably fails because dependencies may not be built in the
correct order.  Having a Makefile.in
   and letting autotools generate the makefile would likely enable parallel
make to be used. Asked on their
   mailing list about updating the makefiles.
g) There is support for GUIs and databases.  Should these be enabled?  Possibly
as subpackages?
h) Could you work with upstream to update this:
https://sourceforge.net/p/aubit4gl/aubit4gl_code/HEAD/tree/aubit4glsrc/trunk/etc/aubit-rpm.spec.in
it may make package maintenance easier.
