Is there any gmock releases inside gtest yet? 1.7.0 seems to be 2-3 years old.

A release with gcc 6 issues fixed would also help:

 https://github.com/google/googletest/issues/705

Do you know why they don't create releases any longer?

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 25 development cycle.
Changing version to '25'.

There now appears to be a 1.8.0 release: https://github.com/google/googletest/releases

googletest.spec

Here's an initial attempt at a combined spec.

Hi! Thanks!

Can you post the required file googletest-libdir.patch too?

googletest-libdir.patch

Hey, is someone working on importing this to replace gmock and gtest?

I haven't progressed beyond what I attached.

I have merged the googletest.spec with the already existing gtest.spec & gmock.spec files and it seems to work. It requires Orion's googletest-libdir.patch and also gtest-null-pointer.patch (otherwise the unit tests fail).

In contrast to 1.7. there are however some differences: gtest-config and gmock-config do not exist anymore (the templates are still in the upstream sources, but they are not build by CMake, at least I don't know how). Also there is now only one libgtest.so and no libgtest.so.0 and libgtest.so.0.0 (I don't know enough about dynamic linking, so no clue where they came from). The same applies to libgtest_main.so, libgmock.so and libgmock_main.so (although the later two were not in the gmock-1.7.0 rpm).

I have submitted the build to copr: http://copr-fe.cloud.fedoraproject.org/coprs/defolos/devel/build/628186/

Open questions:
- I have included a call ldconfig in %install, but don't know if that is necessary
- The Changelog is empty, it should be a combination of the gmock and gtest changelog (+ Orion's contribution). Should they be merged or a new changelog started?

Required patch from the gtest rpm

Hi Dan, thanks for patches! Changes pushed to rawhide:

Awesome! But I guess they aren't making it into 27, are they?

This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '25'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

gmock needs to be retired. It doesn't look like it's marked as a dead package.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 28 development cycle.
Changing version to '28'.

Done. I think we may close this ticket now.
