Hi,  I've used BeerSmith for a while on windows, but have always been a Linux user.  I just switched back, and am using an RPM-based distro (Fedora Core 25).  To my pleasure, I see that there is an x86_64 RPM link on the website....except it's an SRPM.  And it doesn't build.

Here are the fixes that I made to the specfile to get it building correctly.  I have no idea if the variables were present in an earlier version, but
there a bunch of references to things that weren't defined...

Please get in touch with me via e-mail if you'd like a copy of the Fedora 25 x86_64 binary RPM.  I'm happy to provide it. (or the fixed SRPM)
Thanks,
mh
