Description Karol Trzcionka 2007-01-03 23:47:13 UTC 
Spec URL: http://karlik.nonlogic.org/doodle/doodle.spec
SRPM URL: http://karlik.nonlogic.org/doodle/doodle-0.6.6-1.src.rpm
Description: 
Doodle is a tool to quickly search the documents on a computer. Doodle builds
an index using meta-data contained in the documents and allows fast searches on
the resulting database. Doodle uses libextractor to support obtaining meta-data
from various file-formats. The database used by doodle is a suffix tree,
resulting in fast lookups. Doodle supports approximate searches.

Two things to reviewers:
1. I had to comment _smp_mflags, because when this flag is ON, the rpm does not build. I sent mail to author of this program.
2. To build doodle need libextractor-devel. This is not in fedora-extras, but the Review request is bug #214087

I am not sponsored.
Comment 1 Mamoru TASAKA 2007-01-04 18:02:19 UTC 
Well, actually I requested doodle. Then:

Your package does not provide doodled (i.e. rebuilding your
srpm does not create /usr/bin/doodled). The homepage (1) says
that doodled requires fam, which is replaced by gamin.
The spec file provided by dag.wieers.com (2) seems that
doodled can be used with the help of gamin, so please
modify your spec file to use gamin so that doodled can be used.

Also, accroding to "Hints for system administrators" on the homepage
doodled can be run as a daemon. In this case, providing 
initscript service scripts (usually under /etc/rc.d/init.d )
is recommended. Would you provide it?

You can see that /usr/bin/doodled is not installed.

The initscript is a problem. The doodled need argument which directory it
monitors and the doodled can be run more then once in the same time. The doodled
in initscript can be run with argument i.e. "/home", but the progam is limited
to monitoring less than 1024 directories for changes, so the "/home" sometimes
can be too big.
I think it must be discussed.

I will review this later.
Comment 5 Mamoru TASAKA 2007-01-06 07:28:20 UTC 
Well,
= now mockbuild for conditional dependency is okay
= License is "actually" GPL
= Other things are all okay.
= Your other review requests seems good from a
  very quick check.

Thank You for sponsorship. The package was built correctly on buildsys (all
arch, devel), so I can close this request.
