Bug 252456

There are a few small problems with the spec
- I'd say that
  /usr/share/man/man1/tilo.1*
  /usr/share/man/man1/maketilo.1*
  /usr/share/man/man5/silo.conf.5*
  /usr/share/man/man8/silo.8*
should use %{_mandir} (for instance %{_mandir}/man?/*), /usr/sbin/silocheck
should be replaced with %{_sbindir}/silocheck, /usr/bin/stuff with
%{_bindir}/stuff ... (Packaging/Guidelines#macros)
- According to Packaging/Guidelines#parallelmake SMP flags should be used if
possible
- mock build fails with 
No Package Found for elftoaout

Cannot find build req  elftoaout. Exiting.
ending
done
I assume this comes from testing being done on x86 ?

Teach me for submitting a package before i go to bed.  elftoaout needs adding 
also  i submitted a review for it.  Fixed the issues and built in mock.  If 
you want to build on sparc i can give you access to a machine.

OK - Spec in American English
OK - Spec is legible.
OK - Spec provides updated License tag
OK - Sources match upstream md5sum:

OK - BuildRequires correct
See below (#1) - 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.
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.
See below (#2) - No rpmlint output.
OK - final provides and requires are sane:

SHOULD Items:

OK - Should build in mock.
See below (#3) - Should build on all supported archs
OK - Should function as described.
OK - Should have dist tag
OK - Should package latest version
0 bugs - check for outstanding bugs on package.

Notes:
#1: %defattr(-,root,root) -> %defattr(-,root,root,-)

#2: $ rpmlint silo-1.4.13-5.fc8.sparc.rpm
silo.sparc: E: statically-linked-binary /boot/ieee32.b

Is this a blocker?  Considering it appears to be a first-stage bootloader, I'm
quite hesitant to say so.

#3: Ha, ha, ha.  I think we can safely ignore this for an arch-specific bootloader.

Fix #1, and provide some feedback on #2 and #3 (Spot? Peter?), and I think we're
good.

Also, this bug depends on BZ#253043, which is (I believe) approved and built. 
Care to close that? :-)

SPEC: http://ausil.us/packages/silo.spec

#2 i dont think is a problem. it will get called very early in the boot 
process #3  it builds on sparc :) which is all supported archs there is no 
need to build silo as a sparc64 binary.

#1: clearly addressed.

#2: shouldn't be an issue.

#3: do we need to file ExclusiveArch bugs?  Whatever, not exactly a blocker.

I'm going to deem silo APPROVED.

New Package CVS Request
=======================
Package Name: silo
Short Description: The SILO boot loader for SPARCs
Owners: ausil spot pjones
Branches: devel 
InitialCC: jima
Cvsextras Commits: yes

cvs done

Finally getting around to addressing #3 (since you and I keep forgetting to file
ExclusiveArch bugs): I looked at aboot, grub, and yaboot, and found none of them
have bugs filed.  I ran it by my sponsor (and the author of
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures), Spot, and he agreed that there was
no point in filing EA bugs.  I think we can consider our bases covered.
