Description Ben Beasley 2021-03-06 23:00:36 UTC
Spec URL: https://music.fedorapeople.org/wyhash.spec
SRPM URL: https://music.fedorapeople.org/wyhash-final1-1.20210306gitfinal.fc33.src.rpm

Description: 

No hash function is perfect, but some are useful.

wyhash and wyrand are the ideal 64-bit hash function and PRNG respectively:

solid: wyhash passed SMHasher, wyrand passed BigCrush, practrand.

portable: 64-bit/32-bit system, big/little endian.

fastest: Efficient on 64-bit machines, especially for short keys.

simplest: In the sense of code size.

This package provides version “final1” of wyhash.

This is a simple header-only C library (https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_packaging_header_only_libraries) that has somewhat awkward versioning, which I think I have handled reasonably.

Yes, when you use the “forge” macros with a tag (https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/SourceURL/#_tag_example), they automatically add a “snapshot” date. Unfortunately, the release template (https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/SourceURL/#_release_example), which would not do this, very rarely works.

Packaging variables read or set by %forgemeta
  forgeurl:          https://github.com/wangyi-fudan/wyhash
  forgesource:       https://github.com/wangyi-fudan/wyhash/archive/wyhash_final/wyhash-wyhash_final.tar.gz
  forgesetupargs:    -n wyhash-wyhash_final
  archivename:       wyhash-wyhash_final
  archiveext:        tar.gz
  archiveurl:        https://github.com/wangyi-fudan/wyhash/archive/wyhash_final/wyhash-wyhash_final.tar.gz
  topdir:            wyhash-wyhash_final
  extractdir:        wyhash-wyhash_final
  repo:              wyhash
  scm:               git
  tag:               wyhash_final
  distprefix:        .20210306gitfinal
  dist:              .20210306gitfinal.fc33
  (snapshot date is either manually supplied or computed once %{_sourcedir}/%{archivename}.%{archiveext} is available)

It’s possible to work around drop the forge macros and construct the tag archive URL manually, e.g. https://github.com/wangyi-fudan/%{name}/archive/%{tag}.tar.gz.

>   Why this date? 20210306 (6th March, 2021??)

It’s coming from the mtime on the source tarball.

Comment 3 Ben Beasley 2021-03-08 19:36:41 UTC
Actually, I guess that

  %global distprefix %{nil}

before %forgemeta should prevent the snapshot versioning too.

Comment 4 Antonio T. sagitter 2021-03-08 20:31:29 UTC
Package approved.
