Package fixed according to Games SIG recomendations. Spec URL: http://www.ospace.net/files/outerspace.spec SRPM URL: http://www.ospace.net/files/outerspace-0.2.2-1.noarch.rpm I'm not sponsored, so this isn't official. Some items have been omitted either because I'm not sure how to reliably answer them, or they just absolutely don't apply. Complete list is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ReviewGuidelines ALSO, please note that this review is based on your original .src.rpm, since you linked the binary package on your last update. If anything I point out was fixed in new package, please disregard :) OK - MUST: rpmlint must be run on every package. The output should be posted in the review -->No output OK - MUST: The package must be named according to the Package Naming Guidelines. OK - MUST: The spec file name must match the base package %{name}, in the format %{name}.spec unless your package has an exemption on Package Naming Guidelines. OK - MUST: The package must be licensed with a Fedora approved license and meet the ["Packaging/LicensingGuidelines" Licensing Guidelines]. NOT OK - MUST: The License field in the package spec file must match the actual license. --> COPYING says GPLv2, source files says GPLv2 or later. AFAIK, what the source says shows the actual "intent" of the author for licensing. As such, license should be GPLv2+. Please see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/LicensingGuidelines#head-4d5634799c488896bc50697288213a0b2d9acbae OK - MUST: If (and only if) the source package includes the text of the license(s) in its own file, then that file, containing the text of the license(s) for the package must be included in %doc. OK - MUST: The spec file must be written in American English. OK - MUST: The spec file for the package MUST be legible. If the reviewer is unable to read the spec file, it will be impossible to perform a review. Fedora is not the place for entries into the Obfuscated Code Contest (http://www.ioccc.org/). NOT OK - MUST: The sources used to build the package must match the upstream source, as provided in the spec URL. Reviewers should use md5sum for this task. If no upstream URL can be specified for this package, please see the Source URL Guidelines for how to deal with this. --> Version in src.rpm is 30ca7ba6d3b8e632f4ec611a565fb445, upstream is 3ee9e7890392acd53cd5487f33f84f48 (this may be fixed by newer package, but obviously I can't tell) NOT OK - MUST: The package must successfully compile and build into binary rpms on at least one supported architecture. --> Last errors reported by mock (i386 FC7) are: /usr/lib/python2.5/distutils/dist.py:263: UserWarning: Unknown distribution option: 'windows' warnings.warn(msg) running install error: invalid Python installation: unable to open /usr/lib/python2.5/config/Makefile (No such file or directory) OK - MUST: All build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires, except for any that are listed in the exceptions section of Packaging Guidelines; inclusion of those as BuildRequires is optional. Apply common sense. OK - MUST: The spec file MUST handle locales properly. This is done by using the %find_lang macro. Using %{_datadir}/locale/* is strictly forbidden. OK - MUST: If the package is designed to be relocatable, the packager must state this fact in the request for review, along with the rationalization for relocation of that specific package. Without this, use of Prefix: /usr is considered a blocker. OK - MUST: A package must not contain any duplicate files in the %files listing. OK - MUST: Permissions on files must be set properly. Executables should be set with executable permissions, for example. Every %files section must include a %defattr(...) line. OK - MUST: Each package must have a %clean section, which contains rm -rf %{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT). OK? - MUST: Each package must consistently use macros, as described in the macros section of Packaging Guidelines. --> $RPM_BUILD_ROOT could be %{buildroot} OK - MUST: The package must contain code, or permissable content. This is described in detail in the code vs. content section of Packaging Guidelines. OK - MUST: Large documentation files should go in a -doc subpackage. (The definition of large is left up to the packager's best judgement, but is not restricted to size. Large can refer to either size or quantity) ? - MUST: If a package includes something as %doc, it must not affect the runtime of the application. To summarize: If it is in %doc, the program must run properly if it is not present. --> Not sure what the PKG-INFO file is (something for Python?), but contents looks suspect. Use your judgement on that. If it's required to run... it shouldn't be in %doc NOT OK - MUST: Packages containing GUI applications must include a %{name}.desktop file, and that file must be properly installed with desktop-file-install in the %install section. This is described in detail in the desktop files section of Packaging Guidelines. If you feel that your packaged GUI application does not need a .desktop file, you must put a comment in the spec file with your explanation. --> See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#head-43fa82f212954e9288ab00a4f250403353c1813d , basically, you're missing the desktop-file-install command OK - MUST: At the beginning of %install, each package MUST run rm -rf %{buildroot} (or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT). See Prepping BuildRoot For %install for details. OK - MUST: All filenames in rpm packages must be valid UTF-8 Misc: You incremented the minor version number in your new .spec... whereas you want to leave that number alone (since it corresponds to upstream source) and instead increment the Release: number, which corresponds to the package version. Don't forget to update the package's %changelog! It's come to my intention (from other folks, as well as taking a look at it again after writing it) that the above is difficult to read. Here's a condensed version: License: ======== COPYING says GPLv2, source files says GPLv2 or later. AFAIK, what the source says shows the actual "intent" of the author for licensing. As such, license should be GPLv2+. Please see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/LicensingGuidelines#head-4d5634799c488896bc50697288213a0b2d9acbae Source & md5sums: ================= Version in src.rpm is 30ca7ba6d3b8e632f4ec611a565fb445, upstream is 3ee9e7890392acd53cd5487f33f84f48 (this may be fixed by newer package, but obviously I can't tell) Does package build? =================== In my original post I have the error message. The reason behind this error is that you need a "BuildRequires: python-devel". This can replace the BR: python, since python-devel will automatically require python. Macros: ======= $RPM_BUILD_ROOT could be %{buildroot} .desktop file: ============== See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#head-43fa82f212954e9288ab00a4f250403353c1813d , basically, you're missing the desktop-file-install command Release number vs. Version number: ================================== You incremented the minor version number in your new .spec... whereas you want to leave that number alone (since it corresponds to upstream source) and instead increment the Release: number, which corresponds to the package version. Don't forget to update the package's %changelog! ping? I'm sorry, I've been busy last few days. I'll fix issues and provide updated package by the end of this weekend. All problems listed in comment #3 should be fixed: - licencse is now GPLv2+ - spec files uses correct source file - BuildRequires dependencies fixed - using %{buildroot} macro now - fixed content and installation of .desktop file - release number is now 0.2.2-1 as I'm using new upstream version Spec URL: http://ospace.net/files/0.2.2-1/outerspace.spec SRPM URL: http://ospace.net/files/0.2.2-1/outerspace-0.2.2-1.fc7.src.rpm Thanks for our review comments and accept apology for delay. Well, much progress!! For 0.2.2-1: * Redundant Requires - "Requires: python >= 2.3" is not needed. rpmbuild automatically checks python version dependency for this package. You can see "rpm -q --requires outerspace" contains "python(abi) = 2.5". * Desktop file vendor -------------------------------------------- desktop-file-install \ --vendor="ospace.net" \ -------------------------------------------- - Please change the vendor name to "fedora". * %files entry cleanup - When foo is a directory, writing -------------------------------------------- %files foo/ -------------------------------------------- means the directory foo/ itself and all the files/directories/etc under foo/. So: -------------------------------------------- %dir %{python_sitelib}/oslauncher %{python_sitelib}/oslauncher/*.py* %dir %{python_sitelib}/oslauncher/pgu %{python_sitelib}/oslauncher/pgu/*.py* %dir %{python_sitelib}/oslauncher/pgu/gui %{python_sitelib}/oslauncher/pgu/gui/*.py* %dir %{python_sitelib}/oslauncher/urlgrabber %{python_sitelib}/oslauncher/urlgrabber/*.py* --------------------------------------------- can be replaced with one line: --------------------------------------------- %{python_sitelib}/oslauncher/ --------------------------------------------- * Directory ownership issue - Currently /usr/share/outerspace is not owned by any package. --------------------------------------------- %{_datadir}/%{name}/* --------------------------------------------- must be: --------------------------------------------- %{_datadir}/%{name}/ --------------------------------------------- * Duplicate file - The file "/usr/share/outerspace/gray/Vera.ttf" (in this package) is actually the same as "/usr/share/fonts/bitstream-vera/Vera.ttf", which is in bitstream-vera-fonts. So, please: - Replace /usr/share/outerspace/gray/Vera.ttf with the symlink to "../../fonts/bitstream-vera/Vera.ttf" (symlink should be relative) - And add "BuildRequires: bitstream-vera-fonts" "Requires: bitstream-vera-fonts". Then: ------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: Before being sponsored: This package will be accepted with another few work. But before I accept this package, someone (I am a candidate) must sponsor you. Once you are sponsored, you have the right to review other submitters' review requests and approve the packages formally. For this reason, the person who want to be sponsored (like you) are required to "show that you have an understanding of the process and of the packaging guidelines" as is described on : http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/HowToGetSponsored Usually there are two ways to show this. A. submit other review requests with enough quality. B. Do a "pre-review" of other person's review request (at the time you are not sponsored, you cannot do a formal review) When you have submitted a new review request or have pre-reviewed other person's review request, please write the bug number on this bug report so that I can check your comments or review request. Fedora package collection review requests which are waiting for someone to review can be checked on: http://fedoraproject.org/PackageReviewStatus/NEW.html (NOTE: please don't choose "Merge Review") Review guidelines are described mainly on: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ReviewGuidelines http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ScriptletSnippets ------------------------------------------------------------ Problems mentioned in comment #7 should be fixed: * Tue Sep 18 2007 Qark <qark> 0.2.2-2 - Removed dependency on Python - Simplified %files section - Replaced duplicated file with link I don't agree with replacing file with link as it can break when upstream changes theme for GUI (which is very likely). Whole application runs unmodified on several operating systems and I really don't like doing any Fedora specific fixes, because of it complicates maintenance of the application. I wonder why spec file based on already reviewed spec file got so many comments. Should I propagate comments to package I've derived my spec file from? Anyway -- thanks for reviewing the package. Spec URL: http://ospace.net/files/0.2.2-2/outerspace.spec SRPM URL: http://ospace.net/files/0.2.2-2/outerspace-0.2.2-2.fc7.src.rpm Almost okay for this package. * Macros in %changelog - rpmlint shows the following complaint on -2.fc7.src.rpm --------------------------------------------------------------- outerspace.src:70: W: macro-in-%changelog files --------------------------------------------------------------- When writing macros in %changelog, please use %% to prevent macros from being expanded, for example: --------------------------------------------------------------- * Tue Sep 18 2007 Qark <qark> 0.2.2-2 - Removed dependency on Python - Simplified %%files section --------------------------------------------------------------- So, as sponsor process requires, please - pre-review other person's review request - or submit another review request as I wrote in comment 7. (In reply to comment #8) > I don't agree with replacing file with link as it can break when upstream > changes theme for GUI (which is very likely). - You can simply change when it occurs. > I really don't like doing any Fedora specific > fixes, - Actually many srpm in Fedora have many Fedora specific fixes and they are actually necessary :) > I wonder why spec file based on already reviewed spec > file got so many comments. - I just say that Nicholas's comment is just a preview. Hopefully last fix (removed macro from changelog): Spec URL: http://ospace.net/files/0.2.2-3/outerspace.spec SRPM URL: http://ospace.net/files/0.2.2-3/outerspace-0.2.2-3.fc7.src.rpm (In reply to comment #9) > > I really don't like doing any Fedora specific > > fixes, > - Actually many srpm in Fedora have many Fedora specific > fixes and they are actually necessary :) If Fedora is the only distribution requiring specific fixes for simple application (I'm not talking about kernel/core os/desktop) then something is wrong- Gentoo/Debian, BeOS, Mac OS, and Win32 are fine with package as it is except for specific build files. > > I wonder why spec file based on already reviewed spec > > file got so many comments. > - I just say that Nicholas's comment is just a preview. I was commenting whole review process. I'll contact maintainer of the original package and send him review comments so he can fix his package too. If you are fine with this package, I'll continue with sponsor process. Okay for this package: - So I will wait for that you pre-review other person's review request or submit another review request. (In reply to comment #10) > (In reply to comment #9) > > > I really don't like doing any Fedora specific > > > fixes, > > - Actually many srpm in Fedora have many Fedora specific > > fixes and they are actually necessary :) > If Fedora is the only distribution requiring specific fixes for simple > application (I'm not talking about kernel/core os/desktop) then something is > wrong- Gentoo/Debian, BeOS, Mac OS, and Win32 are fine with package as it is > except for specific build files. I will say - This bug is not a place to discuss such a thing - But I can say that while I said "many Fedora specific", most of them are because Fedora's check is more strict (i.e. more correct) > I was commenting whole review process. I'll contact maintainer of the original > package and send him review comments so he can fix his package too. - Having a good connection with the original developers is always good. ping? ping again? I will close this bug as NOTABUG if no response is received from the reporter within ONE WEEK. I will close this bug as NOTABUG if no response is received from the reporter within TWO DAY. CLOSING. If someone wants to import this package into Fedora, please open a new review request, thank you. |
