--- Comment #16 from Matej Cepl <mcepl at cepl.eu> ---
This is what rpmlint warns about in the end of my build (finally successful):

[  134s] claws-mail.x86_64: I: binary-or-shlib-calls-gethostbyname
/usr/lib64/claws-mail/plugins/clamd.so
[  134s] The binary calls gethostbyname(). Please port the code to use
getaddrinfo().
[  134s] 
[  134s] claws-mail.x86_64: W: missing-call-to-setgroups-before-setuid
/usr/bin/claws-mail
[  134s] This executable is calling setuid and setgid without setgroups or
initgroups.
[  134s] There is a high probability this means it didn't relinquish all
groups, and
[  134s] this would be a potential security issue to be fixed. Seek POS36-C on
the web
[  134s] for details about the problem.
[  134s] 
[  134s] claws-mail.x86_64: W: script-without-shebang
/usr/share/claws-mail/tools/alternative-tlds.txt
[  134s] This text file has executable bits set or is located in a path
dedicated for
[  134s] executables, but lacks a shebang and cannot thus be executed.  If the
file is
[  134s] meant to be an executable script, add the shebang, otherwise remove
the
[  134s] executable bits or move the file elsewhere.

I can fix some of these (text file with executable bit set), but you should
know about it.
