cpphs.spec-1.patch

Probably my bad for a bug in the current binlib template, but this needs to be a proper binlib package.

Here is a patch.

Patch applied, with one minor correction (s/LICENSE/LICENCE/); new URLs:

http://konradm.fedorapeople.org/fedora/SPECS/cpphs.spec
http://konradm.fedorapeople.org/fedora/SRPMS/cpphs-1.6-2.fc9.src.rpm

Thanks for the update.

For fun I tries to push it through http://gauret.free.fr/fichiers/rpms/fedora/fedora-qa (though that is a little old now apparently).

Here is my review:

 +:ok, =:needs attention, -:needs fixing

MUST Items:
[+] MUST: [rpmlint] packages are clean
[+] MUST: base name is ok and matches spec
[+] 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.

GPL+ and LGPLv2+

[+] 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.

I think better to move it to ghc-cpphs where it actually applies

[+] 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.

8a7565ff3b2d7bdb594af4c10c594951  cpphs-1.6.tar.gz

[+] MUST: The package must successfully compile and build into binary rpms on at least one supported architecture.
[+] 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.
[+] MUST: All build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires
[=] MUST: A package must own all directories that it creates.

Hmm, /usr/share/doc/ghc/libraries is owned by ghc-doc but not required by ghc-cpphs - looks like a oversight of the guidelines.

Wondering whether we should subpackage haddock docs for this or do something else.

[+] MUST: A package must not contain any duplicate files in the %files listing.
[+] 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.
[+] MUST: Each package must have a %clean section, which contains rm -rf %{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
[+] MUST: Each package must consistently use macros, as described in the macros section of Packaging Guidelines.
[+] MUST: The package contains code
[+] MUST: If a package includes something as %doc, it must not affect the runtime of the application.
[+] MUST: Header files must be in a -devel package.
ghc-cpphs provides -devel for now
[+] 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 own files or directories already owned by other packages.
[+] 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.

I sent a message to the maintainer asking for the GPL license file to be added in the future.

[+] SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package builds in mock.
[+] SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package functions as described.
[+] SHOULD: If scriptlets are used, those scriptlets must be sane.


Once the above file ownership issue is resolved I think I can approve this, but I will attach a small patch.

cpphs.spec-2.patch

- simplify summaries
- move lgpl license file to ghc-cpphs
- add html doc

and some trivial cleanup.

Done. (Or I guess, your patch does this.) Although rpmbuild complains as I told you on IRC.

Well, at any rate ghc-cpphs must depend on ghc-doc (or ghc-doc if we create a subpackage for the docs).

Thanks.

Strange - builds ok for me on f10 (and f11 mock) anyway.

Right.  Since ghc-doc is quite big I am leaning towards subpackaging for all libraries' docs generated by haddock.  I guess in this case ghc-cpphs-doc say.

Any other thoughts from the Haskell SIG?

I updated the templates in the draft haskell-packaging package to handle doc subpackages btw (haven't tested it though yet:).

You could try http://petersen.fedorapeople.org/haskell-packaging/haskell-packaging-0.3-1.fc10.noarch.rpm (though the cabal2spec will conflict with the one in ghc currently).

http://konradm.fedorapeople.org/fedora/SPECS/cpphs.spec
http://konradm.fedorapeople.org/fedora/SRPMS/cpphs-1.6-4.fc9.src.rpm

Now with separate -doc subpackage.

Thanks for the update. :)

One last tweak: you can remove this line I think:

 Requires(postun): ghc = %{ghc_version}

it is now taken care of by the doc requires(postun).

With that the package is APPROVED.

Ah, OK. Thanks!
