Description:

Light is a program to control backlight controllers under GNU/Linux,
it is the successor of lightscript, which was a bash script with the same purpose,
and tries to maintain the same functionality.

Features

- Works excellent where other software have been proven unusable or problematic,
  thanks to how it operates internally and the fact that it does not rely on X.
- Can automatically figure out the best controller to use,
  making full use of underlying hardware.
- Possibility to set a minimum brightness value, as some controllers
  set the screen to be pitch black at a vaĺue of 0 (or higher).

Comment 1 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2017-08-17 10:44:16 UTC
Hello,


 - You should probably use "install -m755" and "install -m644" instead of cp + chmod for the binary and the man page:

install -m755 ./light %{buildroot}/%{_bindir}/

install -m644 light.1.gz %{buildroot}/%{_mandir}/

 - You should use the macro %make_build instead of just make:

%make_build
%make_build light
%make_build man

 - the changelog version is wrong, it should be 1.0-1 not 0.1.0-1

 - the first letter of the summary should be capitalized

 - there's a line too long in the description, you should split it to be under 80 characters per line.

Comment 3 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2017-08-18 12:31:15 UTC
In the description of your package, at the bottom, you accidentaly put a weird character above the l of value:

→→ vaĺue

Please correct it.

Otherwise, package accepted.

Comment 4 Jakub Kadlčík 2017-08-18 12:58:53 UTC
That is strange, good catch. I've fixed it and also removed special characters from my name in the changelog.

Comment 5 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2017-08-18 13:44:11 UTC
I've accepted your package already, so you can request the repo.
No need to remove the special characters from your name, vaĺue was detected by rpmlint because it was not recognized by the spell checker.

Comment 6 Gwyn Ciesla 2017-09-21 12:22:35 UTC
(fedrepo-req-admin):  The Pagure repository was created at https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/light

Comment 7 Jakub Kadlčík 2017-09-21 20:44:30 UTC
Thank you,
I am closing the issue now.
