Builds fine and rpmlint finds nothing to complain about. According to the source (or commander.c, at least), the license is GPLv2+. Do you see anything that might restrict it to GPLv2 only? Everything else looks good to me. * source files match upstream: 415e3e257472c3f784eba43d0c298d2432491b20870f0cbe6beb6756692235f8 firecontrol-0.2.tar.gz * package meets naming and versioning guidelines. * specfile is properly named, is cleanly written and uses macros consistently. * summary is OK. * description is OK. * dist tag is present. * build root is OK. ? license field matches the actual license. * license is open source-compatible. * license text included in package. * latest version is being packaged. * BuildRequires are proper. * compiler flags are appropriate. * %clean is present. * package builds in mock (rawhide, x86_64). * package installs properly * debuginfo package looks complete. * rpmlint is silent. * final provides and requires are sane: firecontrol = 0.2-1.fc9 = libraw1394.so.8()(64bit) * %check is not present; no test suite upstream. I have no way to test this software. * no shared libraries are added to the regular linker search paths. * owns the directories it creates. * doesn't own any directories it shouldn't. * no duplicates in %files. * file permissions are appropriate. * no scriptlets present. * code, not content. * documentation is small, so no -doc subpackage is necessary. * %docs are not necessary for the proper functioning of the package. * no headers. * no pkgconfig files. * no static libraries. Oops, I'd only looked at the COPYING file and saw it was GPLv2, neglected to look at the source header to see 2+ there. I'll fix that. Okay, done: http://people.redhat.com/jwilson/packages/firecontrol/firecontrol-0.2-2.fc9.src.rpm http://people.redhat.com/jwilson/packages/firecontrol/firecontrol.spec Oh, and to test it, simply start it up with elevated privs on a box with a firewire controller. It should report number of controllers found, current bus generation, etc. You can try issuing the command 'br short' to see if it properly issues a bus reset to the controller or 'r . 0 0xfffff0000400 4' to read the first quadlet of the card's config rom, which is some header CRC and length info, or offset 404, which is the 1394 header. For example: ... Command: r . 0 0xfffff0000400 4 reading from node 0, bus 1023, offset 0XFFFFF0000400 4 bytes read succeeded. Data follows (hex): 04 04 22 8E Ack code: complete Command: r . 0 0xfffff0000404 4 reading from node 0, bus 1023, offset 0XFFFFF0000404 4 bytes read succeeded. Data follows (hex): 31 33 39 34 Ack code: complete It gets far more interesting with devices connected, of course. Cool. I went ahead and built it for i386 and ran it on a rawhide box with a firewire port. It did indeed seem to work fine with the above examples. APPROVED tibbs, thanks much for the review!
