It builds fine now, but I have a couple of questions:
1. what is the purpose of :
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root    root               10 Dec 23 03:33 /usr/bin/netdude ->
netdude0.5
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root    root           371952 Dec 23 03:33 /usr/bin/netdude0.5
instead of simply having /usr/bin/netdude as a plain binary ?

2. Why did you choose to package the header files in the -lib rpm? Am I
mistaken when I think that they should go into a separate -devel package, maybe
together with the content of /usr/share/gtk-doc/html/netdude ? I think that, if
you want to separate the libs in their own package (BTW, is it worth the
effort/ is it needed ?), a 3 package approach similar to
glibc-common/glibc/glibc-devel is more appropriate.

3. rpmlint has complains about the debuginfo package:
[wolfy at wolfy ~]$ rpmlint 
/home/wolfy/reports/netdude/netdude-debuginfo-0.5.0-2.fc11.x86_64.rpm
netdude-debuginfo.x86_64: W: hidden-file-or-dir
/usr/src/debug/netdude-0.5.0/libltdl/.libs
netdude-debuginfo.x86_64: W: hidden-file-or-dir
/usr/src/debug/netdude-0.5.0/libltdl/.libs
Should't you delete that directory as part of the cleanup process (together
with the removal of static and libtool files) ?

4. "Application" is no longer a valid category according to the latest standard
for desktop files. Both
http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/latest/apa.html and
Packaging/Guidelines#desktop agree on that. Could you please keep in mind to
fix that, please ?
