$ rpmlint -i devilspie-0.17.1-1.fc5.src.rpm W: devilspie mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs The specfile mixes use of spaces and tabs for indentation, which is a cosmetic annoyance. Use either spaces or tabs for indentation, not both. So I replace all the tabs with spaces in the spec file. After the modify, the rpmlint is cleanly. Created attachment 134620 [details]
spec.patch
it is just a pre-review Things To Check - MUST: rpmlint must be run on every package. The output should be posted in the review. $ rpmlint -i devilspie-0.17.1-1.fc5.src.rpm W: devilspie mixed-use-of-spaces-and-tabs The specfile mixes use of spaces and tabs for indentation, which is a cosmetic annoyance. Use either spaces or tabs for indentation, not both. So I replace all the tabs with spaces in the spec file. (see spec.patch) After the modify, the rpmlint is cleanly. - MUST: The package must be named according to the Package Naming Guidelines. OK - MUST: The spec file name must match the base package %{name}, in the format %{name}.spec OK - MUST: The package must meet the Packaging Guidelines. OK - MUST: The package must be licensed with an open-source compatible license and meet other legal requirements as defined in the legal section of Packaging Guidelines. OK - License is GPL - MUST: The License field in the package spec file must match the actual license. OK - MUST: If (and only if) the source package includes the text of the license(s) in its own file, then that file, containing the text of the license(s) for the package must be included in %doc. OK - MUST: The spec file must be written in American English. OK - MUST: The spec file for the package MUST be legible. If the reviewer is unable to read the spec file, it will be impossible to perform a review. Fedora is not the place for entries into the Obfuscated Code Contest (http://www.ioccc.org/). OK - MUST: The sources used to build the package must match the upstream source, as provided in the spec URL. Reviewers should use md5sum for this task. OK - MUST: The package must successfully compile and build into binary rpms on at least one supported architecture. OK - mock build cleanly for FC5 i386 - MUST: If the package does not successfully compile, build or work on an architecture, then those architectures should be listed in the spec in ExcludeArch. Each architecture listed in ExcludeArch needs to have a bug filed in bugzilla, describing the reason that the package does not compile/build/work on that architecture. The bug number should then be placed in a comment, next to the corresponding ExcludeArch line. New packages will not have bugzilla entries during the review process, so they should put this description in the comment until the package is approved, then file the bugzilla entry, and replace the long explanation with the bug number. (Extras Only) The bug should be marked as blocking one (or more) of the following bugs to simplify tracking such issues: FE-ExcludeArch-x86, FE-ExcludeArch-x64, FE-ExcludeArch-ppc OK - MUST: All build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires, except for any that are listed in the exceptions section of Packaging Guidelines; inclusion of those as BuildRequires is optional. Apply common sense. OK - MUST: The spec file MUST handle locales properly. This is done by using the %find_lang macro. Using %{_datadir}/locale/* is strictly forbidden. OK - MUST: If the package contains shared library files located in the dynamic linker's default paths, that package must call ldconfig in %post and %postun. If the package has multiple subpackages with libraries, each subpackage should also have a %post/%postun section that calls /sbin/ldconfig. An example of the correct syntax for this is: %post -p /sbin/ldconfig %postun -p /sbin/ldconfig OK - this package contains no shared library files - MUST: If the package is designed to be relocatable, the packager must state this fact in the request for review, along with the rationalization for relocation of that specific package. Without this, use of Prefix: /usr is considered a blocker. OK - this package is not relocatable - MUST: A package must own all directories that it creates. If it does not create a directory that it uses, then it should require a package which does create that directory. The exception to this are directories listed explicitly in the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard ( http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html), as it is safe to assume that those directories exist. - MUST: A package must not contain any duplicate files in the %files listing. OK - MUST: Permissions on files must be set properly. Executables should be set with executable permissions, for example. Every %files section must include a %defattr(...) line. OK - MUST: Each package must have a %clean section, which contains rm -rf %{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT). OK - MUST: Each package must consistently use macros, as described in the macros section of Packaging Guidelines. OK - MUST: The package must contain code, or permissable content. This is described in detail in the code vs. content section of Packaging Guidelines. OK - MUST: Large documentation files should go in a -doc subpackage. (The definition of large is left up to the packager's best judgement, but is not restricted to size. Large can refer to either size or quantity) OK - MUST: If a package includes something as %doc, it must not affect the runtime of the application. To summarize: If it is in %doc, the program must run properly if it is not present. OK - MUST: Header files or static libraries must be in a -devel package. OK - MUST: Files used by pkgconfig (.pc files) must be in a -devel package. OK - MUST: If a package contains library files with a suffix (e.g. libfoo.so.1.1), then library files that end in .so (without suffix) must go in a -devel package. OK - MUST: In the vast majority of cases, devel packages must require the base package using a fully versioned dependency: Requires: %{name} = %{version}-%{release} OK - MUST: Packages must NOT contain any .la libtool archives, these should be removed in the spec. OK - MUST: Packages containing GUI applications must include a %{name}.desktop file, and that file must be properly installed with desktop-file-install in the %install section. This is described in detail in the desktop files section of Packaging Guidelines. If you feel that your packaged GUI application does not need a .desktop file, you must put a comment in the spec file with your explanation. OK - MUST: Packages must not own files or directories already owned by other packages. The rule of thumb here is that the first package to be installed should own the files or directories that other packages may rely upon. This means, for example, that no package in Fedora should ever share ownership with any of the files or directories owned by the filesystem or man package. If you feel that you have a good reason to own a file or directory that another package owns, then please present that at package review time. OK SHOULD Items: - SHOULD: If the source package does not include license text(s) as a separate file from upstream, the packager SHOULD query upstream to include it. OK - SHOULD: The description and summary sections in the package spec file should contain translations for supported Non-English languages, if available. OK - SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package builds in mock. OK - mock build success and cleanly - SHOULD: The package should compile and build into binary rpms on all supported architectures. OK - SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package functions as described. A package should not segfault instead of running, for example. OK - SHOULD: If scriptlets are used, those scriptlets must be sane. This is vague, and left up to the reviewers judgement to determine sanity. OK - SHOULD: Usually, subpackages other than devel should require the base package using a fully versioned dependency. OK MD5Sums: 2479a3fe9be3d7666c7f44605fa331c9 devilspie-0.17.1.tar.gz Good: * Source URL is canonical * Upstream source tarball verified * Package name conforms to the Fedora Naming Guidelines * Group Tag is from the official list * Buildroot has all required elements * All paths begin with macros * All necessary BuildRequires listed. * All desired features are enabled * Make succeeds even when %{_smp_mflags} is defined * Files have appropriate permissions and owners * Rpmlint does not find problems * Package installs and uninstalls cleanly Minor: * Duplicate BuildRequires: gtk2-devel (by libwnck-devel), pango-devel (by libwnck-devel), atk-devel (by gtk2-devel) Suggestions: * I would remove the 'For example' line from the description, since it seems unnecessary. * Shorten the summary line. I would remove the 'inspired by' portion of it. This package looks good, but before sponsoring you, I would like to see you review a few packages so I get a feel for your knowledge of FE packing guidelines. For more information refer to: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/HowToGetSponsored I patched the specfile and fixed the minor issues and suggestions. New Version: Spec URL: http://deadbabylon.de/fedora/extras/devilspie/devilspie.spec SRPM URL: http://deadbabylon.de/fedora/extras/devilspie/devilspie-0.17.1-2.fc5.src.rpm I will try to review some packages the next days. I have no time to work myself in the review process. If someone would try it again he could take this spec. Repoening because Christoph Wickert has offered sponsorship Also updated to new version 0.18: SPEC: http://www.deadbabylon.de/fedora/extras/devilspie/devilspie.spec SRPM: http://www.deadbabylon.de/fedora/extras/devilspie/devilspie-0.18-1.fc6.src.rpm Removing the Bug #177841 Tracker because I have already sponsored Sebastian. The package has not been reviewed yet, will do that tomorrow. New upstream version: 0.19 Builds again in fc5. SPEC: http://www.deadbabylon.de/fedora/extras/devilspie/devilspie.spec SRPM: http://www.deadbabylon.de/fedora/extras/devilspie/devilspie-0.19-1.fc6.src.rpm REVIEW for 6c989b45ab19ff212d5a7d55d624543d devilspie-0.19-1.fc6.src.rpm MUST Items: OK - rpmlint quite on all packages OK - package meets naming guidelines OK - spec file meets naming guidelines OK - package meets package guidelines OK - license open-source compatible (GPL) OK - license in specfile matches actual license OK - license included in %doc OK - spec file in American English OK - spec file is legible OK - source in SRPM matches upstream source (md5 35f555000b426e21384ab282c64c6975) OK - package builds on i386 OK - all build dependencies listed BuildRequires FIX - BuildRequires: gob2 is not needed AFAICS. Maybe it was needed in previous versions, but this source contains no gob files. MINOR - you better use "perl(XML::Parser)" instead of "perl-XML-Parser" for the BuildRequires:. OK - none of the exceptions of packaging guidelines in BuildRequires OK - locales handled correctly with %find_lang OK - no shared libs to worry about OK - package is not relocatable OK - package owns all directories that it creates OK - no duplicate files in %files section OK - permissions and %defattr correct OK - clean section with "rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT" present OK - macro usage consistent OK - code, not content OK - no large docs OK - docs don't affect runtime FIX - ChangeLog is not in the package, please add it to %doc. OK - no headers or static libs OK - no pkgconfig files OK - no libtool archives OK - no need for a devilspie.desktop OK - package doesn't own files/directories owned by other packages SHOULD items: OK - package builds in mock (Core 5, 6 and devel on i386) OK - package functions as described OK - package uses disttag This package is APPROVED but you need to fix the issues mentioned above before you build it. |
