Package fails to build in mock (development, both i386 and x86_64):

RPM build errors:
    File not found by glob: /var/tmp/gauche-0.8.7-1-root-mockbuild/usr/share/info/*

I added a BR: for texinfo and all is well.

rpmlint complains:

W: gauche file-not-utf8 /usr/share/info/gauche-refe.info-3.gz

Normally we fix these up with a call to iconv, but I'm not sure how to handle
this problem in a multilingual texinfo file (Japanese and English are included
in the same source file; these are postprocessed to produce the proper texi
output.)  Looking deeper, I see that in this particular file some Japanese has
leaked into the English text; I think the cause is on line 8051 of
modgauche.texi; the "@c COMMON" should be "@c JP", and the following "@c JP"
should be "@c COMMON".

E: gauche-debuginfo non-readable
/usr/src/debug/Gauche-0.8.7/ext/sxml/sxml-sxpath.c 0600
(and many similar lines)

The build process is creating these intermediate files:

/tmp/Gauche-0.8.7> find . -name sxml-sxpath.c -ls
197853  708 -rw-------   1 tibbs    users      719935 Apr 26 22:39
./ext/sxml/sxml-sxpath.c

which should probably be mode 644.  I see some makefiles setting umask, but it's
happening in a subshell so it shouldn't be leaking out.  I don't understand why
they're making it into the debuginfo package, but if the permissions were
correct rpmlint would at least be quiet.

E: gauche-devel only-non-binary-in-usr-lib

Technically since there's nothing system-dependent in there, it could live in
/usr/share.  Not knowing Gauche, I don't know what these files are used for; gcc
for example stores plenty of development files in /usr/lib that are used by the
compiler (and has no -devel package as well).  I don't think this is a blocker.

W: gauche-devel doc-file-dependency
/usr/share/doc/gauche-devel-0.8.7/template.DIST /bin/sh

This file should not be executable.

Ok.

I created a patch for this. I will try to push this upstream.

Ok, I changed all *.c files to 0644

> E: gauche-devel only-non-binary-in-usr-lib
I am somewhat annoyed that rpmlint reports this as an error, not as
a warning.
Of course the include files should be in /usr/include/gauche/%{version}
or something similar, however "gauche-config" reports the /usr/lib
directory, and I don't think it is wise to make major restructuring.
However, I will suggest this upstream.

Ok.

Something seems to have busted; now I can't build any of the packages you've
submitted on the development branch.  Things start to go off here:

I'll attach a build log, but fortunately things still build on the FC5 release
branch, and that's all that's required, so I'll proceed with the review on that
basis.  I think something must have busted since I last pulled from rawhide a
couple of days ago.  The first file it can't find, /usr/include/linux/version.h,
is in FC5 part of glibc-kernheaders but it's not there in current rawhide.

Issues:
You should package the COPYING file as %doc.

I'm inclined to ignore the remaining rpmlint complaint.  In reality fixing
gauche-config should be a simple matter of patching src/genconfig.in, but I have
no way of knowing what that might break.  And anyway, compilers tend to be
something of a special case (c.f. gcc).

There's a test suite that you don't call; I added

%check
cd src; LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libdir} make test

and it runs and, most importantly, passes.

Review:
* package meets naming and packaging guidelines.
* specfile is properly named, is cleanly written and uses macros consistently.
* license field matches the actual license.
X license is open source-compatible and is included upstream but is not included
in the package.
* source files match upstream:
   5c7cb6eba7455c9877aec884b0088a25  Gauche-0.8.7.tgz
   5c7cb6eba7455c9877aec884b0088a25  Gauche-0.8.7.tgz-srpm
* BuildRequires are proper.
* package builds in mock (fc5, i386 and x86_64).
O rpmlint is silent.
* final provides and requires are sane.
* shared libraries are present; ldconfig is called as necessary.
* package is not relocatable.
* owns the directories it creates.
* doesn't own any directories it shouldn't.
* no duplicates in %files.
* file permissions are appropriate.
* %clean is present.
X %check is not present, but upstream includes one that can easily be run.
* code, not content.
* documentation is small, so no -docs subpackage is necessary.
* %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package.
* headers present and in a -devel package.
* no pkgconfig files.
* no libtool .la droppings.
* not a GUI app.

Logg for failing build in rawhide

The build failure seems to be fixed with last night's glibc-kernheaders package
update.

I added the %check and the COPYING file:
http://math.ifi.unizh.ch/fedora/5/i386/SRPMS.gemi/gauche-0.8.7-3.fc5.src.rpm

Looks great and builds fine.

APPROVED

Built successfully on FC-4, FC-5 and FC-6.
However, I had to remove _smp_flags.
Thanks for the review.
