Description Shahms E. King 2006-04-18 15:45:32 UTC
Spec URL: http://shahms.mesd.k12.or.us/packages/python-lxml.spec
SRPM URL: http://shahms.mesd.k12.or.us/packages/python-lxml-0.9.1-1.src.rpm
Description: 
lxml provides a Python binding to the libxslt and libxml2 libraries.  It follows
the ElementTree API as much as possible in order to provide a more Pythonic
interface to libxml2 and libxslt than the default bindings.  In particular,
lxml deals with Python Unicode strings rather than encoded UTF-8 and handles
memory management, unlike the default bindings.

Comment 1 Paul Nasrat 2006-04-25 22:16:22 UTC
rpmlint fails (warning and error):

rpmlint python-lxml-0.9.1-1.src.rpm
W: python-lxml summary-ended-with-dot ElementTree-like Python bindings for
libxml2 and libxslt.
E: python-lxml description-line-too-long lxml provides a Python binding to the
libxslt and libxml2 libraries.  It follows

Can you fix those up and we'll start again.

Comment 3 Paul Nasrat 2006-04-26 17:25:50 UTC
Thanks for that.  Two suggestions but otherwise looking good to me.

Please add a BuildRequires python-setuptools as mock build fails without this.
Suggest use of dist tag - but not necessary for acceptance

Review:
* built on fc5 - tested in v
* package meets naming and packaging guidelines.
* specfile is properly named, is cleanly written, uses macros consistently and
conforms to the python template.
* license field matches the actual license.
* license is open source-compatible and included
* source files match upstream:
25e18d86050907f3a088550fe650f841  lxml-0.9.1.tgz
25e18d86050907f3a088550fe650f841  /home/pauln/tmp/lxml-0.9.1.tgz
* rpmlint is silent.
* BuildRequires sane, although not sufficient for mock.
* final provides and requires are sane.
* no shared libraries are present.
* package is not relocatable.
* owns the directories it creates.
* doesn't own any directories it shouldn't.
* no duplicates in %files.
* file permissions are appropriate.
* %clean is present.
* %check is not present
* package contains code, not content.
* documentation is relatively small , so no -docs subpackage is necessary.
* %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package.
* no pkgconfig files.
* no libtool .la files
* not a GUI app so no .desktop


Comment 4 Shahms E. King 2006-04-26 17:46:26 UTC
Thanks for reviewing the package.  I could have sworn I'd added both the dist
tag and BuildRequires, but that's why we have reviewers ;-).

I've made the suggested changes and put up new files at:

Comment 5 Paul Nasrat 2006-04-26 18:30:55 UTC
Thanks - builds and runs. Meets review criteria, moving to FE-ACCEPT

>>> import lxml.etree
>>> doc = lxml.etree.parse('example-tutorial-en.xml')
>>> e = doc.xpath('//article[@id="example-tutorial"]')
>>> e
