Description:
Tktable provides a table/matrix widget for Tk programs. Features:
multi-line cells, embedded windows, variable width columns/height rows
(interactively resizable), scrollbar support, tag styles per row,
column or cell, in-cell editing, works on UNIX, Windows and MacIntosh,
Unicode support with Tk 8.1 and above.

Comment 1 Richard Shaw 2015-10-17 12:49:08 UTC
Quick spec review first:

1. Location of Summary tag is weird but not a problem.

2. Group tags are not required

3. BuildRoot tag not required unless you want to support RHEL 5.

4. Automake builds are not usually verbose unless V=1 is added to the make command (more detail in the build logs is better)

5. rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT in %install not needed

6. %clean not required unless supporting RHEL 5 

7. %{!?_licensedir:%global license %doc} -- Have you verified this works? I know it was a suggestion on the ticket but it was found not to work, I use:
%if 0%{?rhel} < 7 || 0%{?fedora} < 21
%doc COPYING
%else
%license COPYING
%endif

8. %defattr(-,root,root) not needed.

9. "%_mandir/mann/tkTable.*" -- Strange that mandir isn't in {} but I guess it works fine.

Yep. I will move it in a "traditional" location.

Everything predetermined. 
I wish to package it in EPEL5.

It works of course. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL:Packaging#The_.25license_tag

Some packagers use this form.
Changed even if it would have worked in any case.

Comment 4 Jerry James 2015-10-23 22:20:58 UTC
I will take this review.

- Set tclConfig in EPEL5

Running tests on EPEL5 seems a little bit more complicated but works.

Package Review
==============

Legend:
[x] = Pass, [!] = Fail, [-] = Not applicable, [?] = Not evaluated


Issues:
=======
1. The existence of -fomit-frame-pointer in tclconfig/tcl.m4 concerns me a
   little.  Maybe it doesn't matter, as I believe that is the default on x86_64
   these days anyway, but I'm not sure that it is the default (and won't harm
   the quality of the debuginfo) on other architectures.  What do you think
   about removing that?

2. The tests fail on x86_64, but the %check script doesn't notice.  Please
   make %check fail if the tests fail, then figure out why the tests are
   failing.  It looks trivial: "bad relief" versus "bad relief type".  I'm
   more concerned that %check succeeded anyway.

3. Since a python source file is included in the package, it should
   BuildRequires: python2-devel or python3-devel as appropriate.

4. Speaking of the python file, should it really be in
   %{_libdir}/tcl8.6/Tktable2.10, or should it be installed where python files
   usually go?

5. html/tkTable.html and README.txt are in both %{_libdir}/tcl8.6/Tktable2.10
   and /usr/share/doc/tktable.  Does they need to be both places?

6. Similarly, license.txt is in both %{_libdir}/tcl8.6/Tktable2.10 and in
   /usr/share/licenses/tktable.  Does it need to be both places?

Removed; it's turned on with -O2 optimization but disabled:

$ gcc -c -Q -O2 --help=optimizers | grep fomit
  -fomit-frame-pointer        		[disabled]

Yes, i know; i have signaled to upstream but still none reply.
http://sourceforge.net/p/tktable/mailman/tktable-users/?viewmonth=201510

Those two tests do not fail in EPEL.

It's a wrapper for Python2; i have packaged as a python sub-package.

- Remove potentially bad flag

Comment 9 Jerry James 2015-10-27 03:31:54 UTC
Here is a modified %check script that fails if any tests fail:

%check
%if 0%{?rhel} && 0%{?rhel} < 6
Xvfb :1 &
export DISPLAY=:1
make test 2>&1 | tee test.log
killall Xvfb
%else
xvfb-run -a make test 2>&1 | tee test.log
%endif
grep -E 'Failed[[:blank:]]+0' test.log > /dev/null

The actual test failure appears to be due to a changed error message in newer versions of tk; see the output of "strings %{_libdir}/libtk.so".  That shouldn't cause the test to fail, so I think you should simply do something like this on the affected Fedora releases:

sed -e 's/\(bad relief\) type/\1/' -i tests/tkTable.test
