Description Dave Malcolm 2006-11-20 21:52:02 UTC
Spec URL:
https://testing.108.redhat.com/source/browse/*checkout*/testing/trunk/incubator/gnome-valgrind-session/gnome-valgrind-session.spec?rev=292

SRPM URL:
https://testing.108.redhat.com/files/documents/78/162/gnome-valgrind-session-1.0-1.src.rpm

Description: 
This package adds two options to gdm's Session menu to run an entire GNOME
session under valgrind, and gather the results to report files in your home
directory names valgrind-session.0, valgrind-session.1, etc.

The two sessions filter the output, checking either for errors, or for memory
leaks.

Comment 2 Hans Petter Jansson 2006-11-25 15:34:26 UTC
Dave, I put the tarball you asked for at

http://hp.cl.no/proj/gnome-valgrind-session/src/


Comment 3 Parag AN(पराग) 2006-11-26 15:36:52 UTC
Update SPEC file for working Source tarball link.
Tarball contains backup copy of gnome-valgrind-errors-postprocess as
gnome-valgrind-errors-postprocess~. That should be removed.
However it will be good to have License copy included in tarball.

Can you update new SRPM with above changes? Then i will do review of this package.

Comment 4 Parag AN(पराग) 2006-11-26 15:40:05 UTC
You should always give updated SPEC and SRPM links. I saw that you updates SPEC
in comment 2 but where is its SRPM? Now you should submit 
gnome-valgrind-session-1.0-3.src.rpm and its spec.

Comment 5 Parag AN(पराग) 2006-11-29 17:22:16 UTC
ping

Comment 6 Hans Petter Jansson 2006-12-18 20:41:16 UTC
I've put up a new tarball at http://hp.cl.no/proj/gnome-valgrind-session/src/.
It does not contain any backup files, and I added a LICENSE file and individual
license headers to the scripts. The new version is 1.1. I'll leave the FC
packaging fixes to Dave, if he's got the time.


Comment 7 Dave Malcolm 2006-12-18 20:43:14 UTC
Thanks hpj.   

I'm doomed timewise until early January, I hope to pick this up again then.

Comment 8 Parag AN(पराग) 2006-12-19 06:43:29 UTC
I saw tarball
Is single line in LICENSE file, acceptable?
"This package is in the Public Domain."


Comment 9 Hans Petter Jansson 2006-12-19 08:33:34 UTC
I am not a lawyer, so I don't know what the exact requirements are to release
something into the public domain. I would assume that it's sufficient if you can
prove beyond reasonable doubt that I said it is.

Comment 10 Parag AN(पराग) 2006-12-27 05:03:35 UTC
Better to discuss this then on Fedora-extras mailing list.

Comment 11 Parag AN(पराग) 2007-02-22 10:28:33 UTC
Any updates here or is this review DEAD?

Comment 12 Jason Tibbitts 2007-06-05 18:53:33 UTC
Sure looks dead to me.

Comment 13 Matthias Clasen 2007-09-12 13:28:51 UTC
Reopening. Here are some new packages:

Comment 14 Matthias Clasen 2007-09-12 13:29:56 UTC
Wrt to the license question, "Public Domain" is a valid license according to
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing#SoftwareLicenses

Comment 15 Debarshi Ray 2007-12-25 16:48:47 UTC
Ping?

Matthias, if you want to "re-open" this review I think you need to submit a
fresh review and mark this as duplicate of that one.

Comment 16 Jason Tibbitts 2008-01-21 17:48:34 UTC
Matthias, you should at least be CC'd on this ticket if you're going to push it
forward.  Otherwise I don't see how you would notice the commentary.

Comment 17 Jason Tibbitts 2008-01-27 20:25:39 UTC
I wasn't successful in getting anyone who is Gnome-savvy to look at this, so
I'll just ask: is anyone still interested in this package?  I will review it if
someone still wants to submit it.

Comment 18 Debarshi Ray 2008-01-27 20:51:18 UTC
I am interested in submitting this, but it will be almost 7 days before I submit
this. Freshening up the anjuta and gnome-build packages will keep me
pre-occupied till then. If someone wants to take it up before that, feel free.

Comment 19 Jason Tibbitts 2008-04-24 21:41:41 UTC
Well, it's been far longer than seven days.  Still interested?  Otherwise I
guess I'll close this again.

Comment 20 Debarshi Ray 2008-04-25 02:37:16 UTC
Oops. It slipped my mind. I am still interested. Will file a new bug and close
this one as a duplicate.
