Bug 1609038

This is my first package.

I would like to add it to EPEL7, F27, F28, F29, and Rawhide.

 - Use a more meaningful name for your archive:

Source0:        https://%{provider_prefix}/archive/v%{version}/%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz

 - Add a comment above the patch describing why it is needed.

 - You should unbundle the dependencies and remove the vendor directory in %prep (might take a while). That implies packaging any missing dependency.

 - It is not ok to apply a patch on some architecture only. The arch detection if needed should be in the patched code itself.

 - with_bundled isn't defined anywhere.


There's a new way to package the Go libraries, see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/More_Go_packaging and samples: https://eclipseo.fedorapeople.org/golang/

It would be great to convert to the new style for F27-Rawhide and keep the old style for EPEL7.

That results in the source url no longer being valid and doesn't that go against the Fedora url guidelines which wants the actual source url?

This was recommended to me by one of the package wranglers as well as the cri-o people until the GO packaging guidelines are finalized

That looks to be a proposal. Does the draft not have precedence?

The source URL I provided is valid, check again.

Could take months, packages are already being unbundled.

Most Go packages have already been converted to the new style this past year.

Doh! My bad. Typed it in wrong.

Okay. Thanks for the review and answering questions. Will work through your comments.

I opened this with the wrong email. Apologies for all involved. Closing as duplicate of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1615641
