Bug 467395 (mingw32-openssl)

imho this is one of the most complicated mingw32 spec file. is this really that bad or it was just written too long ago?

a few comments:

do we build and run the tests or not? it seems to me not, but the BR
wine is still there. ie not %if %{with_tests}

is there any reason for this line?:
%{SOURCE1} > /dev/null

neither mingw32-openssl-0.9.8g-configure.patch nor the inline gcc script
has the -mms-bitfields set. anyway it'd be better to everywhere use the
%_mingw32_cflags not the hard coded ones. anyway is it a good trick to
use the inline gcc script?

wouldn't be better to use everywhere the %_mingw32_make macro (but i
don't see whether is has any effect?

this comment in the sepc:
 "Disable this thread test, because we don't have pthread on Windows"
still valid when we have mingw32-pthreads?

unfortunately it's makefiles and configure scripts are very hard coded
so we can't easily fix ar, ranlib etc. just patch the makefiles:-(
imho the best way in this case to run a successful build and look trough
the buildlog to find where and which commands are used.

the Licensing Guidelines .
[+] MUST: The License field in the package spec file must match the actual

[+] 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.

[+] MUST: The spec file for the package MUST be legible.
[+] MUST: The sources used to build the package must match the upstream source,

ExcludeArch.
[+] MUST: All build dependencies must be listed in BuildRequires, except for
any that are listed in the exceptions section of the Packaging Guidelines;
inclusion of those as BuildRequires is optional.
[/] MUST: The spec file MUST handle locales properly. This is done by using the
%find_lang macro. Using %{_datadir}/locale/* is strictly forbidden.
[*] MUST: Every binary RPM package which stores shared library files (not just
symlinks) in any of the dynamic linker's default paths, must call ldconfig in

[-] MUST: Packages containing pkgconfig(.pc) files must 'Requires: pkgconfig'
(for directory ownership and usability).
[*] MUST: If a package contains library files with a suffix (e.g.
libfoo.so.1.1), then library files that end in .so (without suffix) must go in
a -devel package.
[*] MUST: In the vast majority of cases, devel packages must require the base
package using a fully versioned dependency: Requires: %{name} =
%{version}-%{release}
[*] MUST: Packages must NOT contain any .la libtool archives, these should be
removed in the spec.
[/] 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.
[+] MUST: Packages must not own files or directories already owned by other

[/] SHOULD: If the source package does not include license text(s) as a
separate file from upstream, the packager SHOULD query upstream to include it.

should contain translations for supported Non-English languages, if available.
[+] SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package builds in mock. See
MockTricks for details on how to do this.
[+] SHOULD: The package should compile and build into binary rpms on all
supported architectures.
[/] SHOULD: The reviewer should test that the package functions as described. A
package should not segfault instead of running, for example.
[/] SHOULD: If scriptlets are used, those scriptlets must be sane. This is
vague, and left up to the reviewers judgement to determine sanity.
[/] SHOULD: Usually, subpackages other than devel should require the base
package using a fully versioned dependency.
[*] SHOULD: The placement of pkgconfig(.pc) files depends on their usecase, and
this is usually for development purposes, so should be placed in a -devel pkg.
[/] SHOULD: If the package has file dependencies outside of /etc, /bin, /sbin,
/usr/bin, or /usr/sbin consider requiring the package which provides the file
instead of the file itself.

Is there any possibility that the mingw32 guidelines be changed
and static libraries be included (perhaps in separated packages *-static*.rpm)
rather than purged during build ?

I want static libraries because
I need to create a number of small tools running
on NT4 or XP machines and distributes over company 
WAN to several hundreds of servers, and I definitely
cannot make them depend of extra dlls.

Perhaps I am not the only one who would need mingw32* static libs.

Right now, to make standalone executable (not requiring any extra
dlls) with mingw32-gcc on Fedora10 which needs, say, just MD5 functions
from openssl, I need to recompile mingw32-openssl from source 
to get the static libraries.

If such change is possible, it would make mingw32* more usable 
out-of-the-box for me (and I would be happy to volunteer to make
patches for spec files of mingw32* if needed)

This bug is for the OpenSSL review.  Send any further
comments to the mailing list.

I can see this in Rawhide, can we close?

Yes.  It's now in Fedora 10 too:
