First, thanks for finally supporting Linux. I'm happy to rid of WINE from my system.
I have created a spec file that converts the .deb into an RPM and requires all of the right dependencies on F16.
Do you have plans to support a proper RPM for Fedora in the future? There were only two bugs I came across when packaging it:
1. there is a static rpath in the 'beersmith2' binary. I had to disable rpath checks in the spec file to avoid an error.
2. you link against a newer version of wxWidgets compared to what ships in F16, so we still need to ship your local copies. Is this a hard dependency or if you recompiled on F16 would things be fine? It would be nice to not redistribute libraries that are already in the distro.
