Description: SLiM is an evolutionary simulation framework that combines a
powerful engine for population genetic simulations with the capability of
modeling arbitrarily complex evolutionary scenarios. Simulations are configured
via the integrated Eidos scripting language that allows interactive control
over practically every aspect of the simulated evolutionary scenarios. The
underlying individual-based simulation engine is highly optimized to enable
modeling of entire chromosomes in large populations. We also provide a
graphical user interface on macOS and Linux for easy simulation set-up,
interactive runtime control, and dynamical visualization of simulation output.

This is my first package and I need a sponsor. I have maintained this package
for several months, for EPEL, CentOS, Fedora, and openSUSE, on Copr as `SLiM`.
I also maintain a build and installation script for Debian & Ubuntu, while I am
in the process of creating a native Debian package.
The package name "SLiM", which is used by users from my Copr, conflicts with
Simple Login Manager (which is packaged as "slim"), as does a binary file name
(`/usr/bin/slim`). This package, `SLiMgui`, addresses those conflicts and
prepares the SLiMgui package for submission to the official Fedora repository,
hence this review request.
The conflicting binary file name has been renamed, temporarily, to `SLiMcli`.
This conflict has been explained to the upstream developer here:
https://github.com/MesserLab/SLiM/issues/175. Until Ben Haller, the software
developer, provides feedback on his preference (to rename the binary or not),
or we hear from
https://github.com/iwamatsu, or
https://github.com/Hubbitus,
this rename is temporary and I consider it blocking.
The new package, with all necessary changes (and the temporarily renamed
binary), has been uploaded as a new build to my Copr here:
