Description:
mitmproxy is an interactive, SSL-capable man-in-the-middle proxy for HTTP with
a console interface.

mitmdump is the command-line version of mitmproxy. Think tcpdump for HTTP.

libmproxy is the library that mitmproxy and mitmdump are built on.

Comment 3 Michal Ambroz 2015-06-26 02:42:53 UTC
Hello Fabian,
any reason why the source is taken from 3rd party (pypi.python.org) and not from the release on the pages (https://mitmproxy.org/download/mitmproxy-0.12.1.tar.gz) or directly from their github (https://github.com/mitmproxy/mitmproxy/archive/946fd375fa87fb8a4d071a354fb99840b0ccfdf3/mitmproxy-0.12.1-946fd375.tar.gz)

Personally I would recommend taking directly from github:
https://github.com/mitmproxy/mitmproxy/releases

%global         gituser         mitmproxy
%global         gitname         mitmproxy
%global         commit          946fd375fa87fb8a4d071a354fb99840b0ccfdf3
%global         shortcommit     %(c=%{commit}; echo ${c:0:7})


Source0:        https://github.com/%{gituser}/%{gitname}/archive/%{commit}/%{name}-%{version}-%{shortcommit}.tar.gz

%setup -qn %{gitname}-%{commit}

Best regards
Michal Ambroz

> any reason why the source is taken from 3rd party (pypi.python.org)

No reason. I will go with the tarball from the upstream website. At the moment from my point of view there is no meed to run with the git source.

Anyway, thanks for the input.

Comment 5 Michal Ambroz 2015-06-27 00:20:23 UTC
Hello,
generaly most of the checks are OK.
I have identified these issues:
1) Licenses/budled libraries
Package contains bundled libraries. I believe that html2text is problem even from the licensing point of view.
My recommendation is to:
- unbundle html2text and pyparsig - which already have separate package
- agree with bluefish maintainer on unbundling js-beautify/jsbeautifier
- tneststring and wbxml - it would be probably best to ask mitmproxy author on what would be the effort needed to unbundle those

2) Source checksums
- when checking the MD5 I have noticed that source on github and upstream website are different. Packages seems to be same, but probably repacked on different platform.
- Please can you inform the upstream about this issue?

3) Man pages
- this falls to the "should" not must category so it would not be blocking the package approval.
- Please any chance getting the man-pages from the Debian package and try to push it upstream?

Best regards
Michal Ambroz

[x]: Binary eggs must be removed in %prep

===== SHOULD items =====

Generic:
[x]: Packager, Vendor, PreReq, Copyright tags should not be in spec file
[x]: Avoid bundling fonts in non-fonts packages.
     Note: Package contains font files
[x]: If the source package does not include license text(s) as a separate

     architectures.
[-]: %check is present and all tests pass.

     - changing shebang in some python scripts is changing timestamp, but
     those files are really changed so I guess that is fine

[x]: Sources can be downloaded from URI in Source: tag
[x]: Reviewer should test that the package builds in mock.
[x]: Buildroot is not present
[x]: Package has no %clean section with rm -rf %{buildroot} (or

[x]: Spec use %global instead of %define unless justified.

===== EXTRA items =====

Generic:
[!]: Rpmlint is run on all installed packages.
     - false positive spelling errors - can be ignored
     - man pages - ay chance to take manpages from Debian package and ask upstream to add those?
[x]: Spec file according to URL is the same as in SRPM.

Thanks for all your work. I'm a bit busy right now but I will work on this as soon as possible.

Comment 8 Michal Ambroz 2015-07-31 10:36:06 UTC
js-beautify code is currently packaged in nodejs-js-beautify, but the package doesn't provide currently the python bindings. I created bug 1249010 for that.

Comment 13 Alex 2016-04-17 17:09:07 UTC
One of the install-time dependencies for the built package is 'pyamf', but this doesn't seem to be available in any F23 repo I can find.. any clues?

Thanks

Comment 14 Michal Ambroz 2016-11-21 13:09:22 UTC
Latest version is 0.18.2
Pyamf package still not available in Fedora

Comment 15 Andrea Musuruane 2017-12-30 11:51:03 UTC
Latest version is 2.0.2.

Pyamf support is optional:

Hello - I am stepping down from the review of this package.

Comment 17 Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 2019-01-16 14:09:11 UTC
There's version 4.0.4 out and 5.0.0 is in development. I found myself in need of this package, so I'm preparing one and will open a new review bug when done.
