Hi all,
I have built RPMs for libsynce, librapi2, and odccm that seem to work,
but I have a few questions before making them official:

- The archive names that are available for download unpack to different
folder names (synce-libsynce-0.10.0.tar.gz extracts to libsynce-0.10.0).
The RPM builder assumes that they match, and so I have to rename the
archive to match the unpacked name.  Could these be aligned?  I wasn't
sure which name was the "preferred" name.  This doesn't affect the
viability of the resulting RPMs, just their names.
- I can't launch odccm out of the box because odccm.conf is not being
installed.  I wasn't sure if the location of this file is a
distro-specific thing.  On my Fedora Core 6 machine, it needs to be
placed in /etc/dbus-1/system.d.  I could have the RPM install there by
default, but if this non-standard it's probably not worth it.  How is
this handled in the Debian packages? 
-  It looks like libsynce installs into /usr/local/lib, which is not in
the default library path on Fedora.  Is this the expected result?  It
looks like librapi2 installs into /usr/lib, and so there isn't an issue
there.

If I install the three RPMs on a clean machine, I have verified that
with the correct USB driver and the odccm.conf file in place, I can list
the device contents with pls, which was my simple smoke test.  I will
start taking a crack at RPMs for the sync-engine in the meantime.
