This one builds fine; thanks.

Issues:
rpmlint doesn't like the fact that you didn't include a changelog entry.

I cannot fetch Source1; it looks like they've moved the file to sourceforge.  I
can get it from http://dl.sourceforge.net/wings/wings3d_manual1.6.1.pdf which
I'll take to be the upstream.

Most of the final size of the package is the manual, which I think qualifies as
"large" and so should be split into a -docs package.  Since it's not built from
the main tarball, you could even build it from a separate srpm if you wanted.

I don't know if you missed this comment earlier of if you decided against it,
but it might be worth it to note that this package includes the POV exporter
plugin since it's not part of the upstream source.

There are tiny README files stuck in with the compiled code.  They're kind of
pointless; /usr/lib64/wings/plugins/autouv/README says "This directory contains
Auto-UV."  I guess they don't hurt anything but I'm not sure there's much point
in packaging them.  They certainly don't make sense as %doc.

Review:
* package meets naming and packaging guidelines.
* specfile is properly named, is cleanly written and uses macros consistently.
O license field matches the actual license.  (The license is the same as
erlang-esdl's, which is open source but doesn't strictly correspond to any
particular license tag.)
* license is open source-compatible and is included in the package.
O source files match upstream (once I fix Source1):

* BuildRequires are proper.
* package builds in mock (development, i386 and x86_64).
X rpmlint complains about the changelog entry
* final provides and requires are sane.
* shared libraries are present but not in standard locations so there's no need
to call ldconfig.
* package is not relocatable.
* owns the directories it creates.
* doesn't own any directories it shouldn't.
* no duplicates in %files.
* file permissions are appropriate.
* %clean is present.
O %check is not present (no test suite upstream)
* code, not content.
X documentation is large; a -docs subpackage is necessary.
* %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package.
* no headers.
* no pkgconfig files.
* no libtool .la droppings.
* a GUI app.  desktop file is included, looks OK and is properly installed with
desktop-file-install.
