That should be: 

BuildReuires: perl(XML::Parser)

That's usually a sign of needing:

BuildRequires: gettext

It's a good idea to list things that need fixing separately from the rest of the
review checklist as that's clearer and easier to read.

But did it use them *consistently*? That's what the review guidelines are asking
to be checked.

>       - Document files are included like README, NEWS, COPYING, AUTHORS

Did you look to see if there are any other document files in the package that
might be included, or whether any of the included files don't have anything
useful to end users of the package?

No, they're not. The package failed to build in mock because of the missing
buildreqs of perl(XML::Parser) and gettext.

I don't know; I haven't looked at the spec. The review guidelines ask you to
check that macros are used consistently, not just that they are used. So you're
looking for things like:

 * Using both $RPM_BUILD_ROOT and %{buildroot}
 - both expand to the same value; use one or the other but not both in the same
spec file

 * Using %{__rm} but not %{__make} etc.
 - if the packager is using macros for some commands (e.g. %{__rm}), they should
use them in all cases where a macro is available; alternatively, they could just
use "rm" instead of "%{__rm}"; the key is consistency

Supposing the package contains docs:
README, NEWS, COPYING, AUTHOR

Did you check to see if there are any other useful documents in the tarball that
might be useful to end users? There might be some other .txt files, a docs
directory full of useful HTML files, perhaps a TODO file? A reviewer should be
looking at a package in much the same way as they would do if they were
packaging something themselves, looking to see what would be sensible to include.

Also on the subject of documentation, sometimes the documentation provided in
tarballs isn't very useful. So sometimes you may see a "NEWS" file that just
says to look in the "ChangeLog" file. There is no point in including such a
"NEWS" file in the package. That's something a reviewer should be looking at too.

There's also the missing gettext buildreq that caused the package build to fail
in mock.


Comment 5 Parag AN(पराग) 2006-07-14 11:03:26 UTC
Thnaks for your comment Paul.
 This Package requires todo following things
1) Add
BuildRequires: perl(XML::Parser),gettext

2)Package is using mixed macros as explained by Paul in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=198758#c4
Either use %{buildroot} or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT

3)I think with README, NEWS, COPYING, AUTHOR these file TODO is also important
so that let the user know what things AUTHOR is interested to implement in
future versions.

Comment 6 Linus Walleij 2006-07-30 07:50:55 UTC
OK issues adressed:

Spec URL: http://www.df.lth.se/~triad/krad/fc/gnome-phone-manager.spec
SRPM URL: http://www.df.lth.se/~triad/krad/fc/gnome-phone-manager-0.7-2.src.rpm

As for macro consistency, I think that was all OK from the beginning...

Comment 7 Chris Weyl 2006-08-01 06:04:29 UTC
There is at least one instance where you use 'rm', and then '%{__rm}'.  The
guidelines require that you use one or the other form consistently. ("MUST")

Also, the package fails to build under mock:
/usr/bin/ld: warning: libplds4.so, needed by
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.1/../../../../lib64/libedataserver-1.2.so,

/usr/bin/ld: warning: libnss3.so, needed by /usr/lib64/libcamel-1.2.so.0, not
found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link)
/usr/lib64/libcamel-1.2.so.0: undefined reference to
`NSS_InitReadWrite'

(Full log attached.)  I suspect this is due to nspr & nss not being
buildrequires'ed, from the names of the libraries being referenced.

Additionally, are the scriptlets necessary?  The .desktop file does not have a
MimeType entry (see wiki: ScriptletSnippets).  In any case, desktop-file-utils
should not be required for the scriptlets and the scriptlets should be
tolerant of the desktop-file-utils not being installed.

After installing, I find I have two entries for the app in my menus.

Comment 9 Linus Walleij 2006-08-03 18:46:35 UTC
The errors from linking libedataserver and libcamel, which both comes
from the evolution-data-server RPM package, is technically out of scope
for this package as far as I can tell.

gnome-phone-manager does not use either nspr or the rest of the deps
directly, only indirectly through evolution-data-server.
The problem is that the RPM for evolution-data-server does not bring
in its dependencies.

I think it is a problem with evolution-data-server on x64 not 
picking up its own dependencies correctly... I was under the impression 
that this did not occur in mock on i386?

(I'm working on the rest of the issues.)

Comment 10 Linus Walleij 2006-08-03 20:28:03 UTC
New version with all but the above mentioned issue fixed:

Spec URL: http://www.df.lth.se/~triad/krad/fc/gnome-phone-manager.spec
SRPM URL: http://www.df.lth.se/~triad/krad/fc/gnome-phone-manager-0.7-3.src.rpm

I am however uncertain about the %check thing, I cannot find this in the
review guidelines or elsewhere, can you give me a pointer to information?
There is perhaps something all new I need to learn here...

Comment 11 Chris Weyl 2006-08-10 15:32:19 UTC
Requested changes have been made to spec file.

Looking back over the guidelines, there doesn't appear to be an explict
dependency  on a %check section.  (Normally it's a good idea to have something
of the form "%check\nmake test". See, e.g., almost any perl module package spec
file.)  As this package has no test suite, it doesn't make much sense for me to
insist on it :)

The package builds in mock(5/x86_64) after I added "BuildRequires: 
desktop-file-utils" to the spec.  Add it and I'll approve...

Comment 13 Chris Weyl 2006-08-10 23:37:17 UTC
APPROVED

Comment 14 Chris Weyl 2006-08-20 18:47:46 UTC
Ping?  Looks like this was imported and built OK, can we close the bug? :)

Comment 15 Linus Walleij 2006-08-20 21:45:34 UTC
It doesn't build on devel because (I think) Evolution Data Server
has changed its interface. I need to communicate with upstream and
perhaps write patches first... :-/

Comment 16 Chris Weyl 2006-08-21 01:47:20 UTC
Ok, so let's open up another bug against this component directly about the devel
issues and close out this one.

Comment 17 Linus Walleij 2006-08-21 09:44:42 UTC
OK builds nicely in FC5 some problem in devel related to
changes in E-D-S. Would open a bug for it on gnome-phone-manager
but it haven't appeared in Bugzilla yet so can't. Thanks to Chris
for the review and all!
