The package looks very good. Just two suggestions: * you should enable the --disable-silent-rules option in %configure: even if the build process used in GNOME projects is usually safe, I'd be more confident if the compilation lines are explicitely displayed in the build logs * To make future updates of this package easier, you could define a %major_version macro, set to "3.4" here,, that you could use in the Source0 tag, and even in Version. I use such a trick in my GNOME packages. But it's not mandatory ;)
Ok, those sounds like good ideas, here's the new version: spec: http://glua.ua.pt/~rmatos/gnome-font-viewer.spec srpm: http://glua.ua.pt/~rmatos/gnome-font-viewer-3.4.0-2.fc17.src.rpm http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3940243 Thanks for the review!

The incorrect-fsf-address issues with rpmlint is an upstream problem, but absolutely not a blocker for this package. A bug report about it should be a plus ;). You'd better replace %define by %global in your macro definitions, as suggested here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#.25global_preferred_over_.25define Once this single issue fixed, I will approve this package.
> %define major 3 > %define minor 4 > %define micro 0 > Version: %{major}.%{minor}.%{micro} I'd rather not define Version like this, mostly because Fedora packagers (and automatic tools) expect to be able change the Version tag directly when needed. I'm not trying to say it's in any way bad to split it up; it's just that Fedora packagers aren't used to doing that. For instance, hughsie's mclazy script will get into trouble editing this. https://gitorious.org/mclazy/mclazy/trees/master If you want to automate the download URL construction, I'd rather create a macro that takes apart the version string in the Version tag: # first two digits of version %define release_version %(echo %{version} | awk -F. '{print $1"."$2}') (name it to your liking) ... and then uses it in Source0: Source0: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gnome-font-viewer/%{release_version}/%{name}-%{version}.tar.xz
Makes sense. Let's try again: spec: http://glua.ua.pt/~rmatos/gnome-font-viewer.spec srpm: http://glua.ua.pt/~rmatos/gnome-font-viewer-3.4.0-3.fc17.src.rpm http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3940461
Thanks Kaleb for your comment :) This package is APPROVED!
Just mentioning something I noticed, not saying anything should be changed: You've placed the release_version macro definition right after the Version tag, presumably to make rpmlint happy. However, this macro can also work when placed at the top of the spec file, but then it needs to: a) be a %define b) use lazy expansion if you want to use a %global: %global release_version %%(echo %{version} | awk -F. '{print $1"."$2}') Note the two %% in (b). One of the differences between %define and %global is that the former does lazy expansion by default, whereas %global does not. (Again, I have no preference where the macro definition should be, just mentioning it in case you wanted to place it at the top of the file but couldn't because of rpmlint.)
