patch to spec file

Seems you're a new contributor, so you'll need a sponsor. In the meantime, here
are a couple of things (not exhaustive) that needs to be fixed with the spec file;

1. Your package includes a .desktop file, and that needs to be properly install
with desktop-file-install, and include a Buildrequire on desktop-file-utils.
2. Locales needs to be installed using the %find_lang macro.
3. You also likely need another BR on gettext (because of the locales).

Also the Requires on glib, gtk, and pango are not necessary, they are
automatically pulled in by rpm.
I've attached a patch to your spec file that fix these issues.

Deji:  Thanks for the patch and comments.  I've already mentioned these problems
to Josef, as I'm in the process of sponsering him.  :)

ahh ok thanks much, I was kind of confused how to handle the desktop file.  I 
have updated the src.rpm and the spec file, its at the same location

Spec URL: http://www.toxicpanda.com/geany.spec
SRPM URL: http://www.toxicpanda.com/geany-0.10-1.src.rpm

hmm, for some reason I nuked all of the other BR's that are supposed to be 
there.  Fixed that and added vte-devel for the virtual-terminal stuff that 
comes with geany.  Same url as above for updated src.rpm and spec file.

Josef: Looked a little deeper into this package and it is installing
documentation files in /usr/share/doc/%{name} _and_
/usr/share/doc/%{name}-%{version}.  I attempted to add
--docdir=%{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version} but this did not work either.  All the
documentation should go in the same directory and be set as %doc files.  For
now, I would suggest moving the files out of %{_docdir}/%{name} in the %install
section after they have been installed.  Just move the files to . and then
include them in %doc.  Be sure to add a comment above the mv command indicating
that --docdir is not working in %configure.

Please also fix these rpmlint warnings:
W: geany mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs (spaces: line 1, tab: line 39)
W: geany wrong-file-end-of-line-encoding /usr/share/doc/geany/ScintillaLicense.txt

Fixing end of line encodings is typically done with sed.

Ok new SPEC file and SRPM uploaded to the same place its always been.

-fixed the mixed spaces/tabs problem
-added sed command to %install to fix the ScintillaLicense.txt eol encoding
-fixed the docs so they are installed into doc/%{name}-%{version}
-added an rm pixmaps/geany.ico, its only for windows installations

the only rpmlint error thats left is a bogus one about filetypes.c not being 
in a devel package, and that doesn't apply as its just the syntax 
specifications for C for geany.

Ok i uploaded a new -2 package with the changelog updated and such.

*** APPROVED ***

Since you are not yet sponsered, I want to see a couple package reviews from you
before blocking FE-ACCEPT.

reviewed two review requests with errors

bz222220
bz222326

Okay, so you should be sponsered now (if I did it right).

Commited to CVS and built properly, closing with NEXTRELEASE.
