Description Terje Røsten 2007-12-09 19:36:33 UTC

Spec URL: http://terjeros.fedorapeople.org/bib2html/bib2html.spec
SRPM URL: http://terjeros.fedorapeople.org/bib2html/bib2html-1.2.1-1.fc8.src.rpm
Description:
bib2html is a utility for converting a bibTeX file into HTML
format. It will recognize the 'url' field in the bibTeX entries and
make appropriate links in the HTML output to the URL location.

Comment 1 Patrice Dumas 2007-12-09 21:33:59 UTC

* rpmlint is silent
* follow guidelines
* seems to be gpl, free software, although there is a lack of
  explanation and of source file license header
* match upstream
a2a1f9cb34de65f9e07c084841427d9c  bib2html-1.2.1.tar.gz
* %files section right

The license seems to me to be GPL+.

It fails on my bib file, due to a (valid) construct like
  month =         sep # { 25},


APPROVED, if you fix the license field.

I have packaged a similar package, but I don't want to maintain
yet another package, so if you are interested, here it is:

No problem, thanks!

My list is growing too, but I will take it (however I don't
have a clue about ocaml ...). There are no debuginfo packages for ocaml bins?

spec: http://terjeros.fedorapeople.org/bib2html/bibtex2html.spec
srpm: http://terjeros.fedorapeople.org/bib2html/bibtex2html-1.88-2.fc8.src.rpm

(Will send separate bz report later)

BTW: I found some bugs in your nice debian related packages:
 http://www.environnement.ens.fr/perso/dumas/fc-srpms/debian/

Has these packages found any maintainer?

I don't know. I am not very knowlegeable in ocaml myself, that is
also a reason why I didn't submitted the package.

I had a look at the ocaml packaging guidelines, but there is nothing
for packages that are not ocaml libraries.

I will try to fix them, please contact me directly.

debootstrap is now packaged.

There was some discussion about dpkg on fedora-devel (with
some people wanting to cripple the package to avoid having
unattended installation of .deb -- something I am opposed to).

In any case all the packages that are still there are not
submitted, to my knowledge.
