Yes, I looked it over and did quite a few changes myself (removal of
redundant BuildRequires etc.)

I'm having an odd problem with mach though -

I can't set it up as a normal user, it gives permission denied when it
gets to setting up the /dev part (yes, user in group mach - using
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/UsingMach instructions )

It will setup as root, but after doing so - I am no longer able to open
an xterm :-/
It opens, but no login prompt and it is a zombie window - won't close.

If I try to rebuild the packages as root using mach, they fail with the
log file fool of /dev/null permission denied stuff.

Only think that might be a little nonstandard is I have /var/lib/mach as
a symlink to the external USB drive that has the space for it. Maybe
I'll try mounting the drive at /var/lib/mach instead of using a symlink
and see if that fares better.
