+&gt;&gt;<i> Why not `lib64ksane-devel` ?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>You are right, the package name libksane-devel is incorrect. See
+</I>&gt;<i><A HREF="http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=libraries">http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=libraries</A>
+</I>
+
+Thanks for the pointer, Christiaan!
+
+OTOH, as a self-apprentice packager, I've collected a number of pages to help me with understanding the building issues, e.g. rpmlint -i warnings and errors,&#160; etc.

+Am I right to do this? Mageia's wiki pages are not clarifying enough.
+
+E.g.
+
+
+-- it does not say about %{buildroot} vs. $RPM_BUILD_ROOT used consistently, ie, no mixing of %{buildroot} and $RPM_BUILD_ROOT, see <A HREF="https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Using_.25.7Bbuildroot.7D_and_.25.7Boptflags.7D_vs_.24RPM_BUILD_ROOT_and_.24RPM_OPT_FLAGS">https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Using_.25.7Bbuildroot.7D_and_.25.7Boptflags.7D_vs_.24RPM_BUILD_ROOT_and_.24RPM_OPT_FLAGS</A>
+
+-- it does not say about desktop-file-install vs.desktop-file-validate see <A HREF="https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#desktop-file-install_usage">https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#desktop-file-install_usage</A>
+
+
+-- it does not tell the apprentice packagers about what rpmlint errors or warnings should *never* be ignored (e.g. explicit-lib-dependency, binary-or-shlib-defines-rpath, no-cleaning-of-buildroot, no-buildroot-tag, hardcoded-library-path, etc.)
+
+Actually, it was `invalid-build-requires` that made me inspect the 64-bit library thing!
+
+
+-- it does not tell what rpmlint errors/warnings *should* usually be ignored, e.g.:
+1. non-standard-group when the Group is valid in Mageia, e.g.: Graphics, Video, ...
+2. no-documentation, no-manual-page-for-binary, manpage-not-compressed, incorrect-fsf-address, file-not-utf8, name-repeated-in-summary, etc.
+
+I'm still not sure about library-without-ldconfig-postin/library-without-ldconfig-postun, because as long as the SPRM was taken from MDV or F15... and as long as the installed package works...
+
+
+Andr&#233;, what do you think?
