Description Aaron Kurtz 2006-02-25 23:07:24 UTC 
Spec Name or Url: http://hardsun.net/fedora/par2.spec
SRPM Name or Url: http://hardsun.net/fedora/par2-0.4-1.src.rpm

Description: This application provides support for PAR2 
files. Parity archives provide RAID-like data recovery for
files, allowing the recovery of any 'X' real data-blocks for
'X' parity data-blocks present. Version 2 extends this to
virtual slices of files, reducing the required redundant data
and making it easier to include non-like sized files in the
recovery set.
Comment 1 Konstantin Ryabitsev 2006-02-26 00:07:12 UTC 
There is "parchive" already in Extras. Same thing?
Comment 2 Aaron Kurtz 2006-02-26 00:55:43 UTC 
No, parchive deals with PAR or PAR1 files, while
par2 is the utility for the next generation spec,
PAR2.
Comment 3 Ralf Corsepius 2006-02-26 06:19:21 UTC 
NEEDSWORK:
- package doesn't depend on libsigc++ at all.
Please remove "BR: libsigc++-devel"

- I don't see any need for 001_hardlinks.patch
The original authors want these programs hardlinks, so be it.

- Compilation triggers dozens of warnings of this kind:
...
par2fileformat.h:67: warning: ignoring packed attribute on unpacked non-POD
field 'MD5Hash PACKET_HEADER::hash'
par2fileformat.h:68: warning: ignoring packed attribute on unpacked non-POD
field 'MD5Hash PACKET_HEADER::setid'
par2fileformat.h:79: warning: ignoring packed attribute on unpacked non-POD
field 'MD5Hash FILEVERIFICATIONENTRY::hash'
par2fileformat.h:86: warning: ignoring packed attribute on unpacked non-POD
field 'MD5Hash FILEVERIFICATIONPACKET::fileid'
...
In many cases, these warnings can not be ignored. Please check.

- The toplevel Makefile.am contains this:
LDADD = -lstdc++

This is a BUG. Remove this line.

I have installed libsigc++20-devel and it still wont build.
Comment 5 Laurent Rineau 2006-05-10 15:09:55 UTC 
It seems this bug is a dup of #190070. (Actually, it is #190070 that should 
have been a dup of this bug, since I posted it after yours.)

Aaron, you can find the FE spec file of par2cmdline at:
  http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/rpms/par2cmdline/devel/?root=extras
You are welcome to make comments about this spec file. I already have taken 
into account comment #3 of Ralf.

(Ralf, I add you to CC list. Perhaps you have super-powers mark this bug as 
dup.)
Comment 6 Laurent Rineau 2006-05-31 12:25:00 UTC 
No anwser. I got fedorabugs membership since then. I close this bug.
