Description: 
MoleQueue is an open-source, cross-platform, system-tray resident desktop
application for abstracting, managing, and coordinating the execution of tasks
both locally and on remote computational resources. Users can set up local and
remote queues that describe where the task will be executed. Each queue can
have programs, with templates to facilitate the execution of the program. Input
files can be staged, and output files collected using a standard interface.
Some highlights:

* Open source distributed under the liberal 3-clause BSD license
* Cross platform with nightly builds on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows
* Intuitive interface designed to be useful to whole community
* Support for local executation and remote schedulers (SGE, PBS, SLURM)
* System tray resident application managing queue of queues and job lifetime
* Simple, lightweight JSON-RPC 2.0 based communication over local sockets
* Qt 5 client library for simple integration in Qt applications

- Development (unversioned) .so files in -devel subpackage, if present.
  Note: Unversioned so-files directly in %_libdir.
  See: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#DevelPackages
Hm, upstream has unversioned libraries. So all users will have to be rebuilt in sync. It would be nice talk with upstream why this is a bad idea. Nothing you can do downstream though [https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2009-March/msg01155.html].

You should run ldconfig scriptlets anyway, I think [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Scriptlets#Shared_libraries].

Why not python3? Ah, OK, the code does not seem to be python3 compatible. Too bad.

.tar.gz would be preferable to .zip, they're 30% smaller usually.

This is a graphical application, it would be nice to add an appdata file
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:AppData, and a desktop file.
Especially the desktop file is important so that people can launch this without going to the console. This is a specialized application, so the appdata can be missing.

+ package name is OK
+ license is OK (BSD 3-clause)
+ license is specified correctly
+ builds and installs OK
- scriptlets are missing (see above)
+ buildrequires, provides, requires look correct

Looks good otherwise.

I have fully ignored the 'ldscripts' in these rpms.
Scatterbrained.

Comment 5 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2017-03-17 20:29:55 UTC 
Duh, I thought we got rid of those terrible icon cache scriptlets, but apparently they are still required.

+ package name is OK
+ license is OK (BSD 3-clause)
+ license is specified correctly
+ builds and installs OK
+ scriptlets are OK
+ buildrequires, provides, requires look correct

One issue, my fault:
in the .desktop file:
-Name=HPC queuing system 
+Name=MoleQueue
+Comment=Manage HPC jobs from the system tray

(Name is displayed in search, and the text was too generic.)

Package is APPROVED.
Comment 6 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2017-03-17 20:30:47 UTC 
(I didn't check actual functionality, because I don't have the necessary setup, but the app seems to be functional.)
