+Hi, I'm responsible of the import of this package in the svn.
+This is the same .spec file than in Mandriva. It was building correctly in the 
+Mandriva build system, but it doesn't in Mageia's one, this is why it is not 
+in the packages repository. The error seems to be trivial, but I was unable to 
+fix it because I'm a beginner in C++. I know this is bad, because I know one 
+should own the language of his packages, but I did though because I'm a user 
+of this library. I have waited a long time that someone else import it, but as 
+I saw noone else did, I took the decision to do it.
+
+So maybe someone someone could adopt it (just patch and submit, because it's 
+not yet in maintdb), or if noone is interested to adopt it I could just post 
+here the error message and ask how I should fix ?
+If someone wants to adopt it, he won't be alone on it while I'll keep an eye 
+on it while I'm a user of this lib.
+
+Thanks
