Fedora Merge Review: reiserfs-utils

http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/reiserfs-utils/
Initial Owner: jgarzik

Comment 1 Gwyn Ciesla 2008-09-16 17:05:18 UTC
rpmlint on SRPM and RPMS are clean.

Upstream Source is 404 due to namesys.com DNS issues, but md5sum matches kernel.org version, which I think is Good Enough under the circumstances.

Any reason it's called reiserfs-utils and not the upstream reiserfsprogs?  I assume some sort of fs-util nameing convention?  If so, document in spec.

Otherwise, full review is great, very tidy package, no other blockers.

Comment 2 Gwyn Ciesla 2008-12-10 14:10:34 UTC
Ping?

Comment 3 Gwyn Ciesla 2009-03-31 15:27:40 UTC
Ping again?

Comment 4 Jeff Garzik 2009-03-31 20:19:40 UTC
Somebody needs to poke Fedora Project about this package, as I have not cared about it in a long, long time.

Feel free to offer to maintain this Fedora package, if you wish!

Comment 5 Jason Tibbitts 2009-03-31 21:52:46 UTC
If you don't want to maintain it, why don't you orphan it?  The only reason it persists in the distro is because you're still listed as the owner.

Comment 6 Jason Tibbitts 2009-03-31 22:04:25 UTC
Actually, I think I'll just save you the trouble.  Sorry for the pkgdb spam you'll receive.  Maybe someone who wants this package will pick it up.

Comment 7 Jeff Garzik 2009-03-31 22:10:26 UTC
Thanks!

Comment 8 Itamar Reis Peixoto 2009-04-01 01:42:45 UTC

The URL tag in the .spec file should be changed to the new $HOME at:
http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/fs/reiserfs/


-thanks-

Comment 10 Gwyn Ciesla 2009-04-01 12:46:18 UTC
Itamar, basically correct the URL tag.  I'd have liked to have had some explanation of the naming being different than upstream (reiserfs-utils/reiserfsprogs), but that would have come from Jeff, ideally, so I'll let that go.

the future of reiserfs is still obscure [1], about the name , I recommend to let the current name, this package will probably removed in next merge review
