There is allready opendap-3.4.4 in fedora cvs (with the servers ?). The servers are not released for 3.5.2. As libdap in opendap-3.4.4 and libdap in 3.5.2 are incompatible as stated on the opendap site (although I don't know how...), maybe it would be nice to have both. I have tested that opendap-3.4.4 and libdap-3.5.2 and the devel packages can coexist, as the names of libraries and utilities changed between the releases. libnc-dap-3.5.2 and opendap-3.4.4 conflict, however. I think that this is not a problem as they are compatible (as much as the netcdf interfaces are compatible). So maybe a good thing would be to split opendap-3.4.4 in opendap-libdap and opendap-nc-dap (or opendap-ncdods as it is called like that in this release if I'm not wrong) such that the libdap pars can be installed along while the libnc-dap conflict. Myabe it would also be a good idea for the various subpackages of opendap to provide the new names, say libnc-dap-devel (with version 3.4.4). And if you think it is a good idea libdap-3.5.2 and libncdap-3.5.2 could provide the old names too. rpmlint complains about the licence for libdap, however there is really a file under the W3C licence so I think it is right. W: libdap-devel invalid-license LGPL/W3C Hi Patrice, thanks for submitting this--its good to see someone volunteering to work on it! I'm very busy right now and won't get a chance to look at it for a few days. If Tom (who maintains the opendap package) or someone else doesn't sign on as the reviewer for this, then I'll do so next week. Hi Patrice, sorry for the delay. I've looked at your libdap-3.5.2-3.src.rpm package and have the following comments: good: + RPM builds in FC-4 mock + no rpmlint errors + source matches upstream + specfile looks good (readable, code not content, etc.) nits: - the Source0: URL is either out-of-date or wrong, please use: ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/dods/DODS-3.5/source/libdap-3.5.2.tar.gz - upstream is now at 3.5.3 but its your decision whether to update it or not Moving on to potential conflicts with the opendap* packages, I don't know what to say. I haven't checked to see if there are any conflicts. And even if there are, I don't know if it even matters for FC-4+ since the opendap packages aren't available due to serious build problems on 64-bit architectures. So, how about we proceed by saying that libdap-3.5.2-3.src.rpm is APPROVED for FC-4+ and that a separate bugzilla entry should be opened for the libnc-dap-3.5.2-4.src.rpm package. That will give a reviewer (probably me) a chance to test-build the latter in mock following inclusion of the former into the Extras repository. Here is an updated srpm with the correct Source0, updated to 3.5.3 http://www.environnement.ens.fr/perso/dumas/fc-srpms/libdap-3.5.3-2.src.rpm Once it is approved I'll resubmit libnc-dap in a separated bugzilla entry. Looks good -- libdap-3.5.3-2.src.rpm is APPROVED.
