Bug 234812

modified BR line for epel4:
BuildRequires:  libnet-devel >= 1.1, libpcap,tcpdump


Sucessfully built in mock, seems to run OK. Played a 30 secs capture file
without problems, no further checks done

See if this fares any better:

 ? = Not evaluated

=== REQUIRED ITEMS ===
 [x] Buildroot is correct
(%{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root-%(%{__id_u} -n))
 [x] Rpmlint output:
 [x] Package is named according to the Package Naming Guidelines.
 [x] Spec file name must matches the base package %{name}, in the format
%{name}.spec.
 [x] Package meets the  Packaging Guidelines.
 [x] Package is licensed with an open-source compatible license and meet other
legal requirements as defined in the legal section of Packaging Guidelines.
 [x] License field in the package spec file matches the actual license.
     License type: BSD

 [x] Package successfully compiles and builds into binary rpms on at least one
supported architecture.
     Tested on: FC6/i386
 [x] Package is not known to require ExcludeArch, OR:
     Arches excluded:
     Why:
 [x] All build dependencies are listed in BuildRequires, except for any that are
listed in the exceptions section of Packaging Guidelines.
 [-] The spec file handles locales properly.
 [-] ldconfig called in %post and %postun if required.
 [x] Package is not relocatable.
 [x] Package must own all directories that it creates.
 [-] Package requires other packages for directories it uses.
 [x] Package does not contain duplicates in %files.

$RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
 [x] Package consistently uses macros.
 [x] Package contains code, or permissable content.
 [x] Large documentation files are in a -doc subpackage, if required.
 [x] Package uses nothing in %doc for runtime.
 [-] Header files in -devel subpackage, if present.
 [-] Static libraries in -devel subpackage, if present.

 [-] Fully versioned dependency in subpackages, if present.
 [x] Package does not contain any libtool archives (.la).

application.

=== SUGGESTED ITEMS ===
 [x] Package does not include license text files separate from upstream.
 [-] Description and summary sections in the package spec file contains
translations for supported Non-English languages, if available.
 [x] Reviewer should test that the package builds in mock.
     Tested on: FC6/i386
 [-] Package should compile and build into binary rpms on all supported
architectures.
     Tested on:
 [?] Package functions as described.
 [-] Scriptlets must be sane, if used.
 [-] The placement of pkgconfig(.pc) files are correct.
 [x] File based requires are sane.
 [-] Latest version is packaged.

=== Issues ===
1. Please consider to change the install lines in your patch to use install -p
to preserve timestamps.  Or you could 
2. Please change "%doc Docs" to "%doc Docs/*" so that there is not an extraneous
 single Docs directory in the %doc directory.
3. Not sure why you did a file base requires on /sbin/tcpdump rather than a
package name.
4. CFLAGS are not being used in the compile.  This is a blocker.
5. Do not include Docs/INSTALL, Docs/WARNINGS.  You might also consider only
including one format for the same information as far as Docs/*.

=== Final Notes ===
1.

Thank you very much for picking this up. I will work on the open issues and
report back.

> 3. Not sure why you did a file base requires on /sbin/tcpdump rather than a
package name.

This software actually places the absolute path to tcpdump binary into one its
binaries. So, I was thinking it's better to put an absolute pathname in there,
just in case the maintainers of tcpdump decide to move the binary to another
location. Maybe a bit too paranoid...

I'll address the other questions and issues a bit later on. Just bit too busy
with work stuff right now. :-(

It's unlikely that it would happen, but I guess that's a safety measure.  I'm
fine with that.

Revised spec and source RPM now available:

ftp://ftp.rexursive.com/pub/tcpreplay/tcpreplay.spec
ftp://ftp.rexursive.com/pub/tcpreplay/tcpreplay-2.3.5-3.src.rpm

The issues addressed:

> 1. Please consider to change the install lines in your patch to use install -p
to preserve timestamps.

Done.

> 2. Please change "%doc Docs" to "%doc Docs/*" so that there is not an
extraneous  single Docs directory in the %doc directory.

Done.

> 4. CFLAGS are not being used in the compile.  This is a blocker.

Done. Now setting CFLAGS to RPM_OPT_FLAGS in Makefile explicitly.

> 5. Do not include Docs/INSTALL, Docs/WARNINGS.  You might also consider only
including one format for the same information as far as Docs/*.

Done. I only included text and HTML versions (the latter is included because
there is an image HTML docs include, which text files cannot point to).

OOPS! Apologies, completely missed that.
