        Hi!

    There is a small bug in the spec-file included in the CLN 
package "http://www.ginac.de/CLN/cln-1.1.13.tar.bz2". The package is 
compressed by "bzip2" and has extension ".bz2", but the spec-file refers to 
a "gzip"-compressed file with extension ".gz", so the command

	rpmbuild -ta cln-1.1.13.tar.bz2

fails. A workaround could be to uncompress the file and re-compress it with 
gzip, but this is somewhat inconvenient, and the issue is easily fixed by 
replacing ".gz" by ".bz2" in the spec-file.

	Kind regards,
		Markus
