Description Christoph Wickert 2006-12-18 02:27:21 UTC
Spec URL: http://home.arcor.de/christoph.wickert/fedora/extras/review/SPECS/xfce4-xfapplet-plugin.spec
SRPM URL: http://home.arcor.de/christoph.wickert/fedora/extras/review/SRPMS/xfce4-xfapplet-plugin-0.1.0-1.fc7.src.rpm
Description: The XfApplet Plugin is a plugin for the Xfce 4 Panel which allows one to use applets designed for the Gnome Panel inside the Xfce Panel. You can think of XfApplet as a tiny Gnome Panel that lives inside the Xfce Panel and allows you to show the same applets that the Gnome Panel is capable of showing.

I'd be happy to review this package. 

Expect a full review in a bit.

OK - Spec has consistant macro usage.
OK - Meets Packaging Guidelines.
OK - License (GPL)
OK - License field in spec matches
OK - License file included in package
OK - Spec in American English
OK - Spec is legible.
OK - Sources match upstream md5sum:
6a06c44b18a97626f44a240ad3bc3244  xfce4-xfapplet-plugin-0.1.0.tar.bz2
6a06c44b18a97626f44a240ad3bc3244  xfce4-xfapplet-plugin-0.1.0.tar.bz2.1
OK - BuildRequires correct
OK - Spec handles locales/find_lang
OK - Package has %defattr and permissions on files is good.
OK - Package has a correct %clean section.
OK - Package has correct buildroot
OK - Package is code or permissible content.
OK - Packages %doc files don't affect runtime.

See below - Package is a GUI app and has a .desktop file

OK - Package compiles and builds on at least one arch.
OK - Package has no duplicate files in %files.
OK - Package doesn't own any directories other packages own.
OK - Package owns all the directories it creates.
OK - No rpmlint output.
OK - final provides and requires are sane:

SHOULD Items:

OK - Should build in mock.
i386/x86_64 - Should build on all supported archs
OK - Should have dist tag
OK - Should package latest version

Issues:

1. The summary seems a bit odd to me:
"A plugin to use gnome-panel based applets inside the Xfce4 one"
How about:
"A plugin to use gnome-panel based applets inside the Xfce4 panel"

2. Your desktop file needs desktop-file-install:

Thanks, will change that. As I'm not a native english speaker, I wouldn't have
recognized this.

> 2. Your desktop file needs desktop-file-install:

As I said in Bug #219986 Comment #3 I don't think so. Quoting from the guidelines:
"This is mostly for the sake of menu-editing (which bases off of .desktop
file/path names)."
... but nothing in the "Add Items to the Panel" dialog can be edited.

BTW: Is the above sentence from the guidelines correct? "bases OFF OF .desktop
file" sounds strange to me.

Comment 4 Kevin Fenzi 2006-12-22 16:54:37 UTC
Yeah, desktop-file-install isn't needed here. Sorry about that. 

Oddly, that sentence is ok. English is a weird language. ;) 

I don't see any further blockers here, so this package is APPPROVED. 
You can fix the summary on import. 

Don't forget to close this NEXTRELEASE once it's been imported and built.

No, it's not _that_ weird, German is even worse for non native speakers I think. :)

Glad to have English spell-checking in Firefox 2.0 now.

Done.

Done. Closing.
