Changed buildroot, added dist to version: http://mef.fedorapeople.org/packages/java-libraries/jgraph.spec http://mef.fedorapeople.org/packages/java-libraries/jgraph-5.12.1.1-3.fc10.src.rpm Oops, I hadn't noticed that this was already in jpackage -- mea culpa. :( I've taken the jpackage spec and modified it slightly and here's the result: http://mef.fedorapeople.org/packages/java-libraries/jgraph.spec http://mef.fedorapeople.org/packages/java-libraries/jgraph-5.12.2.1-1.fc10.src.rpm Here are the differences from the jpackage spec: - Updated to latest upstream 5.1.2.1 - Added maven fragments and additional documentation - Used dos2unix to convert file endings - Removed Epoch -- not sure if that's kosher or not ... - Added gcj stuff *** Bug 510905 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Alright, internet searching failed me :) Ill review this soon then shall I? The package looks pretty good. I will do a full review next update: RPMLint was clean, mock was OK. Comments: ---- Description is weasel-wordy: Most powerful? and more? First free diagram editor for java -- I think jfig might beat it here (does jfig have drag'n drop?) 100% pure Java (What does that mean?) Fully standards-compliant (What standard? ISO 9001? Why do I (user) care?) etc. Please make it a bit more descriptive of what the software actually does, and what the package provides. I can't really tell from the description -- is it graphing software, can I make x-y plots? Or does it do network graph analysis? Or just display them? The README file is a little clearer "A component to display and edit graphs (networks) with Java" "With the JGraph zoomable component, you can display objects and relations (networks) in any Swing UI." Some ideas: *Provides automatic 2D layout and routing for diagrams, for swing UIs *Allows for generation a wide variety of object-connection relation diagrams in a java user interface. ---- I am getting errors during the RPM debug information extraction step when rebuilding (F10). A cursory examination makes me suspect it may be related to this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=472292 + /usr/lib/rpm/find-debuginfo.sh --strict-build-id /home/makerpm/rpmbuild/BUILD/jgraph-5.12.2.1 extracting debug info from /home/makerpm/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/jgraph-5.12.2.1-1.fc10.i386/usr/lib/gcj/jgraph/jgraph-5.12.2.1.jar.so cpio: jgraph-5.12.2.1/aot-compile-rpm/usr/lib/gcj/jgraph/org/jgraph/JGraph$EmptySelectionModel.java: Cannot stat: No such file or directory cpio: jgraph-5.12.2.1/aot-compile-rpm/usr/lib/gcj/jgraph/org/jgraph/JGraph$GraphSelectionRedirector.java: Cannot stat: No such file or directory cpio: jgraph-5.12.2.1/aot-compile-rpm/usr/lib/gcj/jgraph/org/jgraph/JGraph.java: Cannot stat: No such file or directory cpio: jgraph-5.12.2.1/aot-compile-rpm/usr/lib/gcj/jgraph/org/jgraph/event/GraphLayoutCacheEvent$GraphLayoutCacheChange.java: Cannot stat: No such file or directory .... ---- Licencing is not clearly LGPLv2+.

Duh? That it's written only in Java, with no platform-specific requirements? > Fully standards-compliant (What standard? ISO 9001?

I believe your complains are pretty much bogus. Please do not confuse short summary with documentation. > The README file is a little clearer "A component to display and edit graphs > (networks) with Java" "With the JGraph zoomable component, you can display > objects and relations (networks) in any Swing UI." > > Some ideas: > *Provides automatic 2D layout and routing for diagrams, for swing UIs > *Allows for generation a wide variety of object-connection relation diagrams > in a java user interface.

README pretty much suggests that terms in LICNESE.txt apply, so there's probably no need to bug upstream here. Changed to LGPLv2. > > BuildRequires: dos2unix > > I prefer not using dos2unix for endline conversion This is a matter of taste and I'd prefer to follow packager's one, thus no change here. > >%defattr(0644,root,root,0755) > > You could simply use (-,root,root,-) here..

Umm, no that's definitely not needed for review, feel free to do that yourself (technically, one architecture-release combination is needed and there's no clear reason why would they fail, nor indication that packager intends to create branches for these). Since this is a dead review, a new request was filed as bug #532203. I will be thankful if you could continue the review there. Also, I'll appreciate if you could maintain or co-maintain the package once it's in. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 532203 *** |
