Comment 3 Michel Lind 2021-05-12 21:10:13 UTC
Taking this review.

Some initial issues:

Issues:
=======
- Package installs properly.
  Note: Installation errors (see attachment)
  See: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/
- Pure Ruby package must be built as noarch
- Package contains Requires: ruby(release).
- If (and only if) the source package includes the text of the license(s)
  in its own file, then that file, containing the text of the license(s)
  for the package is included in %license.
  Note: License file MIT-LICENSE is not marked as %license
  See: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-
  guidelines/LicensingGuidelines/#_license_text

Installation errors
-------------------
Error: 
 Problem: conflicting requests
  - nothing provides libyajl.so.2()(x86-64) needed by rubygem-ffi-yajl-2.4.0-1.fc35.x86_64

Is libyajl being reviewed? It should probably be marked as a blocker

Comment 4 Michel Lind 2021-05-12 21:21:10 UTC
Ah, you want this:

$ sudo dnf repoquery --repo rawhide --provides yajl                         
libyajl.so.2
libyajl.so.2()(64bit)
yajl = 2.1.0-16.fc34
yajl(x86-32) = 2.1.0-16.fc34
yajl(x86-64) = 2.1.0-16.fc34

Not sure what's best here. either hardcode whether you're matching agaist 64-bit or 32-bit based on %ifarch, or... just don't specify the architecture at all.

And this should be probably used also as a BR instead of the yajl-devel.

Any volunteer to formalize this method via some macro and documenting it in packaging guidelines? ;)

Spec URL: https://dcavalca.fedorapeople.org/review/rubygem-ffi-yajl/rubygem-ffi-yajl.spec
SRPM URL: https://dcavalca.fedorapeople.org/review/rubygem-ffi-yajl/rubygem-ffi-yajl-2.4.0-2.fc35.src.rpm

Changelog:
- Fix requires for yail
- Add missing requires on ruby(release)
- Install additional license file

Comment 8 Davide Cavalca 2021-05-27 19:25:37 UTC
Note: /usr/bin/ffi-yajl-bench doesn't actually run as it requires a bunch of other gems that aren't packaged yet (oj, yajl-ruby, and something called "perftools.rb" I can't find anywhere). I'm looking into that now.

This sounds as some development tool. Should it even be installed by default?

This is an automatic check from review-stats script.

This review request ticket hasn't been updated for some time. We're sorry
it is taking so long. If you're still interested in packaging this software
into Fedora repositories, please respond to this comment clearing the
NEEDINFO flag.

You may want to update the specfile and the src.rpm to the latest version
available and to propose a review swap on Fedora devel mailing list to increase
chances to have your package reviewed. If this is your first package and you
need a sponsor, you may want to post some informal reviews. Read more at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group.

Without any reply, this request will shortly be considered abandoned
and will be closed.
Thank you for your patience.
