Here are a few issues from the rpmlint output: > git-annex.src: W: invalid-url Source0: git-annex-0.11.tar.bz2 The Source0 needs to be a full URL, not just a filename. I can't seem to find a tarball on the git-annex website. Can you work with upstream to get them to publish a tarball for each new version? > git-annex.x86_64: W: spurious-executable-perm /usr/share/man/man1/git-annex.1.gz This should be fixed. > git-annex-debuginfo.x86_64: E: debuginfo-without-sources Have you tried to fix this error? A few other issues: 1) The %description seems a little long. Most packages seem to have one or maybe two brief paragraphs. 2) This is a dumb preference, but I would slightly change the summary to "Manage files with git, without checking in their contents". 3) It looks like there have been a few version updates since the last time the spec file was updated. 4) Have you sent the patches to the Makefile upstream? By the way, it looks like the documentation is correctly installed by the Makefile in a newer version of git-annex. 5) Two of the dependencies are unavailable on Fedora 14. I can't really do anything more on this review until the ghc-pcre-light package is in.

The -debuginfo package actually needs disabled since Haskell doesn't support it. > A few other issues: > > 1) The %description seems a little long.

I'll look at trimming it down. > 2) This is a dumb preference, but I would slightly change the summary to > "Manage files with git, without checking in their contents". Yeah, also taken from the website. Your wording is better. Will appear in the next version. > 3) It looks like there have been a few version updates since the last time the > spec file was updated. Will appear in the next update. (I don't keep all the RR's I have 100% up-to-date, just the ones that have attention since there are sometimes a dozen updates between be initially submitting and getting a reviewer). > 4) Have you sent the patches to the Makefile upstream?

I think the author changed around some of them. I'll look at it more closely when I update it. > 5) Two of the dependencies are unavailable on Fedora 14. I can't really do > anything more on this review until the ghc-pcre-light package is in. Hence the Blocks: field above :) . I have a local repository which I build against and has pretty much every package in the review list in it. My server has had issues since a power outage 2 or 3 weeks ago and I still haven't had a chance to look into it. As earlier discussed on Fedora haskell-devel list, dropping libraries for now from the toplevel of Haskell-pkg-reviews, so we, the Haskell SIG, can focus more on getting Haskell apps into Fedora. To get you library back under the tracker please submit a bin or binlib package that depends on this library and make this bug block that package review. It is a good idea to submit full stacks of packages and then to add the toplevel program to the tracker. This is a top-level package. Doesn't use cabal, but it is Haskell and a binary. Sorry thanks for catching that, Ben. I assume Andrew is not intending to review this? I originally started to, but as I got into it, all of the Haskell-specific stuff creeped me out. git-annex is on Hackage now with a cabal build system, so I'll update to use it rather than the Makefile stuff sometime this week hopefully. (In reply to comment #7) > I originally started to, but as I got into it, all of the Haskell-specific > stuff creeped me out. That's ok - I was just asking yes/no? :) Anyway not as many weird macros in non-library Cabal packages. :) I just note in passing that the Fonts packaging macros also generate %files sections automagically for example. I haven't received any comments so far from the packaging list on the revised Haskell Guidelines. FYI, thanks for working on this. I just build the package from the src.rpm and it was much easier than using cabal. I tried for a few hours to get cabal to build it like the source asks you to do, but it just wouldn't work. The src.rpm, however, worked nicely. I think there may be a package missing in the build-requirements list as I think I had to install something to get it to work, but I lost track of what I did time-wise so couldn't tell you which package. As Wes mentioned, git-annex is now in hackage with more deps... I may try package it all unless someone else can help to do it. I'd certainly like it if someone would package and maintain it (I'm swamped and am not a haskell expert myself). I would like to use it, but am not really motivated to put trust in it when it's so painful to build from scratch. I'd like to see this packaged too. Currently a good version to start with might be 3.20111211. But it still needs hS3 (-> Crypto, hxt (->...)), monad-control (-> base-unicode-symbols), and SHA. Latest releases have further deps on lifted-base and transformers-base. Anyway there is some work to be done to get this all ready. Hi, I'm the author of git-annex, and appreciate your work on getting it into Fedora, since based on user feedback, this is currently one of the harder Linux distributions for users to install it to. I'd really like to make this happen. It seems that the main issue is build dependencies. But there are some ways to work around that. git-annex's git repository has several branches that avoid most of the newer build dependencies. For building with ghc older than 7.4, there is the ghc-7.0 branch. For building without S3 (and its long chain of dependencies noted above), there is a no-s3 branch. It's also possible to avoid monad-control (which also avoids lifted-base), although currently the only branch I have that does do is the debian-stable branch. There's also a no-bloom branch omitting another recent build dependency. These all remove some features (and dropping monal-control removes some robustness in one case), but still leave a quite capable program. I would be quite willing to put together a branch that omits any build dependencies necessary for Fedora, and maintain it for the lifetime of the Fedora release. (Not sure if I can commit to the lifetime of a Red Hat release :) Just get in touch with me. Fewer dependency versions sound good just for getting it into Fedora. I'll see if I can find the time to update to a snapshot with existing deps. We can tack more deps in once they're packaged. Thank you, Joe, for reaching out to us. :-) We now have lifted-base (and monad-control) in Fedora at least. :) I think we are gradually getting closer to being able to package the main hackage. Seems now we are still missing packages: - bloomfilter - hS3 -> Crypto, hxt* - IfElse - SHA So yes it is probably a good idea initially to package merging the no-S3 branch, since hxt is quite a few packages. Of course it would be nice to have S3 support in Fedora later. Ben: do you have time to try for that? Joe: I assume adding an S3 flag to git-annex.cabal is not practical? SHA is needed in the yesod and gitit stacks anyways (though yesod has *lots* to get through yet until SHA is an issue, gitit less so), so that could be bumped up my list. IfElse and bloomfilter look easy. Sunday is probably the earliest I'll get to this. Bloomfilter package. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=670007 An S3 flag in git-annex.cabal was a good idea. That is done in git, so without the S3 library it will auto-disable S3 support now. Glad to see bloomfilter is getting packaged. Nice thing to have available in general. :) SHA is fairly core, I could make a branch without it, but it would lose support for encrypting content. If packaging SHA turns out to be a problem, let me know and I'll work something out. IIRC it's a fairly simple library to build. I could easily spin a branch without IfElse (about a 4 line patch), or it should be trivial to package. Various people have been asking for this for a while so setting priority to High. OK I submitted a package for SHA, so only IfElse (or patch for it) needed now. I have added a no-ifelse branch to git. You might find it easiest to pull it out into a srpm patch. I will be releasing the next git-annex version in 2 days (blocked on the Debian side!) with the automatic S3 disabling or you can use git. Thanks! The no-ifelse patch looks pretty simple. :) https://github.com/joeyh/git-annex/commits/no-ifelse Newest release needs edit-distance.

Builds in koji rawhide: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4093104 I think the manpages should be generated and included and probably the docs too. The html docs are actually larger than the binary so maybe it is sensible to subpackage them if they are to be packaged. Doesn't git-annex need git at runtime? If so then there should be a Requires added for git. Joey, BTW any chance of backporting the S3 Cabal flag to your ghc-7.0.4 branch? I guess ghc-7.0.4 will still be around for a while. Created attachment 585977 [details]
git-annex.spec-1.patch
This patch adds git-annex-shell symlink, builds docs, and installs the manpages.
(In reply to comment #28) > Joey, BTW any chance of backporting the S3 Cabal flag to your ghc-7.0.4 > branch? I guess ghc-7.0.4 will still be around for a while. Joey informed me that the current ghc-7.0.4 branch already has the S3 flag backported. So it should be possible to build git-annex easily hopefully for F16 and F17. Created attachment 588376 [details]
git-annex.spec-2.patch
Here is an additional patch (ie should be applied after
the previous one) which subpackages the html docs.
Congratulations to Joey. Ben, can you update your submission so we can complete the review? I hope only pending thing is the Requires for git.

git-annex.spec-3.patch
Patch for docs subpackage "Documentation" and duplicate GPL file.
Ben, can you file the SCM request so we can get this built? New Package SCM Request ======================= Package Name: git-annex Short Description: Manage files with git, without checking their contents into git Owners: mathstuf Branches: f17 f16 InitialCC: haskell-sig Git done (by process-git-requests). nice! perfect timing. Just today I tried to build/install from source on x86_64/F17, following these instructions http://git-annex.branchable.com/install/Fedora/ and found that it failed. Please let us know when there's a koji build. FWIW, I also tried to build on F17 using this: http://benboeckel.net/packaging/git-annex/git-annex-3.20120522-1.fc18.src.rpm Thanks again, Ben!

Hopefully the packages should be in koji and bodhi soon anyway... git-annex-3.20120615-1.fc18 is now built for F18 rawhide. For those who are impatient to build and try git-annex on current Fedora releases with ghc-7.0.4, I prepared a src rpm package: http://petersen.fedorapeople.org/git-annex/git-annex-3.20120522-2.fc17.src.rpm based off the ghc7.0 branch from github, which builds in koji: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4195689 (f17) http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4195707 (f16) So perhaps we could use this for the f17 and f16 branches? [it fails on f15 since no ghc-bloomfilter there] Hi Jens, Thanks for doing that. I tried building on F17/x86_64 using your .src.rpm, but it failed with this: $ rpmbuild --rebuild git-annex-3.20120522-2.fc17.src.rpm ...

Did you upgrade from F16? Maybe you still have some f16 packages around like libffi*? F17 has libffi.so.5 Anyway I planning to import the above srpm into git soon and build it if Ben doesn't object - not sure if he is away right now...? Maybe easier for you just to install the rpm from my scratch build above: http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/5690/4195690/git-annex-3.20120522-2.fc17.x86_64.rpm ? But you may need to be quick before it gets garbage collected... git-annex-3.20120522-2.fc17 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 17. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/git-annex-3.20120522-2.fc17 git-annex-3.20120522-2.fc16 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 16. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/git-annex-3.20120522-2.fc16 git-annex-3.20120522-2.fc17 has been pushed to the Fedora 17 testing repository. git-annex-3.20120522-2.fc16 has been pushed to the Fedora 16 stable repository. git-annex-3.20120522-2.fc17 has been pushed to the Fedora 17 stable repository.
