Jikes is already in Extras. Yes, OTOH orphaned and already dropped from the devel repo. #1 : I couldn't see it, which is why I've put it up for review #2 : Could you give it the once over and I'll adopt it? * Summary must start with uppercase
* The URL is now jikes.sourceforge.net
* Both descriptions must end with a period
* The installation of the man page is wrong -> no star wildcard
* There must be a "rm -rf %{buildroot}" at the beginning of the %install section
* The release number of the current FC5 rpm is 5, so make it at least 6
I wonder what the jikesapi.h header can be used for...
I'd suggest just unorphaning the current jikes package from FE CVS (FC-5 branch) as usual instead of rewriting everything from scratch. It's in a good shape (IIRC, I used to maintain it ;)) and has some post-upstream-1.22 bugfixes that are important to some users. (In reply to comment #5) > I'd suggest just unorphaning the current jikes package from FE CVS (FC-5 > branch) as usual instead of rewriting everything from scratch. It's in a good > shape (IIRC, I used to maintain it ;)) In that case, maybe you should take over the review. I don't think the package currently in CVS needs a (re-)review, the usual unorphan process should work just fine for it, and this bug could be closed as WONTFIX. But maybe that's just me... OTOH, if the package in CVS does need a re-review, it wouldn't make much sense for me to review it, being blind to one's own bugs etc. Paul, would you submit the original src rpm? I will look it over quickly. Do you mean the version that is in CVS or the one you can find at http://nodoid.homelinux.org/fedora/srpms.shtml ? I would say the one from CVS, since it contains some patches. It's been eleven months since the last comment; is anyone still working on this? I am no longer interested in reviewing this. Is anyone else? FWIW, it looks like the FC-5 branch still builds: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=610129 It does need a full review per the process I think for reviving it. Paul, are you still interested in this? Address Not Found for the srpm url. Please reopen if anyone interested to have this review again. |
