Description Fabian Affolter 2010-06-20 11:41:14 UTC
Spec URL: http://fab.fedorapeople.org/packages/SRPMS/xmount.spec
SRPM URL: http://fab.fedorapeople.org/packages/SRPMS/xmount-0.4.2-1.fc13.src.rpm

Project URL: https://www.pinguin.lu/index.php

Description:
xmount allows you to convert on-the-fly between multiple input
and output hard disk image types. xmount creates a virtual file
system using FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) that contains a virtual
representation of the input image. The virtual representation can
be in raw DD, VirtualBox's virtual disk file format or in VmWare's
VMDK file format. Input images can be raw DD, EWF (Expert Witness
Compression Format) or AFF (Advanced Forensic Format) files. In
addition, xmount also supports virtual write access to the output
files that is redirected to a cache file. This makes it possible
to boot acquired hard disk images using QEMU, KVM, VirtualBox,
VmWare or alike.

[+] MUST: The package must be named according to the Package Naming Guidelines.
[+] MUST: The spec file name must match the base package %{name}, in the format %{name}.spec unless your package has an exemption.
[+] MUST: The package must meet the Packaging Guidelines.
[+] MUST: The package must be licensed with a Fedora approved license and meet the Licensing Guidelines.
[-] MUST: The License field in the package spec file must match the actual license.

Where you got BSD license? README file say it is GPLv3+.

[+] MUST: If (and only if) the source package includes the text of the license(s) in its own file, then that file, containing the text of the license(s) for the package must be included in %doc.
[+] MUST: The spec file must be written in American English.
[+] MUST: The spec file for the package MUST be legible.
[+] MUST: The sources used to build the package must match the upstream source, as provided in the spec URL. Reviewers should use md5sum for this task. If no upstream URL can be specified for this package, please see the Source URL Guidelines for how to deal with this.

[+] MUST: The package MUST successfully compile and build into binary rpms on at least one primary architecture.
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2425969

[=] MUST: If the package does not successfully compile, build or work on an architecture, then those architectures should be listed in the spec in ExcludeArch. Each architecture listed in ExcludeArch MUST have a bug filed in bugzilla, describing the reason that the package does not compile/build/work on that architecture. The bug number MUST be placed in a comment, next to the corresponding ExcludeArch line.
[+] MUST: All build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires, except for any that are listed in the exceptions section of the Packaging Guidelines ; inclusion of those as BuildRequires is optional. Apply common sense.
[=] MUST: The spec file MUST handle locales properly. This is done by using the %find_lang macro. Using %{_datadir}/locale/* is strictly forbidden.
[=] MUST: Every binary RPM package (or subpackage) which stores shared library files (not just symlinks) in any of the dynamic linker's default paths, must call ldconfig in %post and %postun.
[-] MUST: Packages must NOT bundle copies of system libraries.

There copy of md5 implementation.

[=] MUST: If the package is designed to be relocatable, the packager must state this fact in the request for review, along with the rationalization for relocation of that specific package. Without this, use of Prefix: /usr is considered a blocker.
[=] MUST: A package must own all directories that it creates. If it does not create a directory that it uses, then it should require a package which does create that directory.
[+] MUST: A Fedora package must not list a file more than once in the spec file's %files listings.
[-] MUST: Permissions on files must be set properly. Executables should be set with executable permissions, for example. Every %files section must include a %defattr(...) line.

See rpmlint output.

[+] MUST: Each package must have a %clean section, which contains rm -rf %{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
[+] MUST: Each package must consistently use macros.
[+] MUST: The package must contain code, or permissable content.
[=] MUST: Large documentation files must go in a -doc subpackage. (The definition of large is left up to the packager's best judgement, but is not restricted to size. Large can refer to either size or quantity).
[+] MUST: If a package includes something as %doc, it must not affect the runtime of the application. To summarize: If it is in %doc, the program must run properly if it is not present.
[=] MUST: Header files must be in a -devel package.
[=] MUST: Static libraries must be in a -static package.
[=] MUST: Packages containing pkgconfig(.pc) files must 'Requires: pkgconfig' (for directory ownership and usability).
[=] MUST: If a package contains library files with a suffix (e.g. libfoo.so.1.1), then library files that end in .so (without suffix) must go in a -devel package.
[=] MUST: In the vast majority of cases, devel packages must require the base package using a fully versioned dependency: Requires: %{name} = %{version}-%{release}
[=] MUST: Packages must NOT contain any .la libtool archives, these must be removed in the spec if they are built.
[=] MUST: Packages containing GUI applications must include a %{name}.desktop file, and that file must be properly installed with desktop-file-install in the %install section. If you feel that your packaged GUI application does not need a .desktop file, you must put a comment in the spec file with your explanation.
[=] MUST: Packages must not own files or directories already owned by other packages. The rule of thumb here is that the first package to be installed should own the files or directories that other packages may rely upon. This means, for example, that no package in Fedora should ever share ownership with any of the files or directories owned by the filesystem or man package. If you feel that you have a good reason to own a file or directory that another package owns, then please present that at package review time.
[=] MUST: At the beginning of %install, each package MUST run rm -rf %{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
[=] MUST: All filenames in rpm packages must be valid UTF-8.

SHOULD Items:
[+] SHOULD: If the source package does not include license text(s) as a separate file from upstream, the packager SHOULD query upstream to include it.
[=] SHOULD: The description and summary sections in the package spec file should contain translations for supported Non-English languages, if available.
[+] SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package functions as described. A package should not segfault instead of running, for example.
[=] SHOULD: If scriptlets are used, those scriptlets must be sane. This is vague, and left up to the reviewers judgement to determine sanity.
[=] SHOULD: Usually, subpackages other than devel should require the base package using a fully versioned dependency.
[=] SHOULD: The placement of pkgconfig(.pc) files depends on their usecase, and this is usually for development purposes, so should be placed in a -devel pkg. A reasonable exception is that the main pkg itself is a devel tool not installed in a user runtime, e.g. gcc or gdb.
[=] SHOULD: If the package has file dependencies outside of /etc, /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, or /usr/sbin consider requiring the package which provides the file instead of the file itself.

Comment 4 Fabian Affolter 2010-09-01 10:25:02 UTC
Pavel, thanks for the patch.  I will update the spec file in the near future.

Comment 5 Fabian Affolter 2011-03-27 10:51:09 UTC
I'm not able to build the package any longer.

Comment 6 Pavel Alexeev 2012-03-18 08:14:51 UTC
Can I help you with that? What kind of troubles you are experience?

Comment 7 Fabian Affolter 2012-05-01 06:07:21 UTC
Upstream released a new upstream version. I'm able to build the package but at the moment I don't know how to get rid of the md5 implementation (from guymager).

Comment 8 Pavel Alexeev 2012-05-02 15:39:21 UTC
xfreerdp with option "--plugin cliprdr" work. Is it possible set for xfreerdp or  remmina to set this option by default for all rdp connections?

Comment 9 Pavel Alexeev 2012-05-02 16:31:02 UTC
Sorry for the wrong comment!

Please post new srpm and spec files.

Copy of MD5 code is in a lot of Fedora packages. I would not bother to try to put it away and replace with some library calling as long as upstream is maintaining the code and as long as directly this code is not exported by some already used library.

For example MD5 code is included in these packages: john, medusa, openvas-ibraries, cyrus-sasl, gnutls, flac, gcc, glibc, libgcrypt, curl, krb5, nss-softokn, openldap, openssl, uade, util-linux ... and probably many more.

Comment 11 Pavel Alexeev 2012-05-20 17:10:26 UTC
Yes, some md5 implementations bundling allowed: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:No_Bundled_Libraries#Exceptions

Please post new package to proceed.

Comment 13 Michal Ambroz 2012-07-10 19:55:54 UTC
I have cleared the assignment, because the ticket was assigned to Fabian to review his own package, which is probably not the case.

Please Pahan are you still interested to do the review?

Best regards
Michal Ambroz

Comment 14 Pavel Alexeev 2012-07-21 10:47:54 UTC
Sorry for the delay. Yes, I've take it again.

Fabian, does it intended for EPEL too? Its important for review.

Meantime your spec miss:
Provide: bundled(md5-deutsch)
in any case.

No, at least not at the moment.
