Description Patrice Dumas 2006-01-29 11:13:27 UTC
SRPM Name or Url: http://www.environnement.ens.fr/perso/dumas/fc-srpms/perl-Text-Unidecode-0.04-1.src.rpm
Description:

Text::Unidecode provides a function, `unidecode(...)' that
takes Unicode data and tries to represent it in US-ASCII
characters (i.e., the universally displayable characters between
0x00 and 0x7F). The representation is almost always an attempt at
*transliteration* -- i.e., conveying, in Roman letters, the
pronunciation expressed by the text in some other writing
system.

Comment 1 Jason Tibbitts 2006-01-31 00:03:22 UTC
Good:
Package builds and rpmlint finds nothing at all to complain about.
Package meets naming and packaging guidelines.
License is acceptable, matches License: tag and included in %doc (as part of
README).
Specfile is legible, well-written and uses macros consistently.

Bad:
Nothing.  "BuildRequires: perl" is not necessary (see
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Exceptions ) but
 this is not a blocker.

Approved.

Comment 2 Patrice Dumas 2006-02-05 12:02:26 UTC
I have filled a bug about the BuildRequires: perl, and then send a mail on the
fedora mailing list.
