Bug 502689 (mingw32-cppunit)

Taking for review.

Some initial notes:

! Building the package fails in mock because of
  missing BuildRequires mingw32-gcc-c++

! If doxygen is present in build host, building fails with:
error: Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:
   /usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/share/doc/cppunit/FAQ
   /usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/share/doc/cppunit/_additional_message_8cpp.html
   /usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/share/doc/cppunit/_additional_message_8cpp__incl.map
<snip>

Please use explicit --disable-doxygen configure option to prevent that.

! cppunit-config.1 duplicates documentation of native cppunit package. As per Fedora MinGW packaging guidelines[1], those man pages that are duplicates of the ones found in native packages should be removed.

! rpmlint output:
$ rpmlint mingw32-cppunit-1.12.1-1.fc12.src.rpm mingw32-cppunit-1.12.1-1.fc12.noarch.rpm
mingw32-cppunit.noarch: W: manpage-not-compressed-with-gzip /usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/share/man/man1/cppunit-config.1
2 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 1 warnings.

That warning will go away if you remove cppunit-config.1 man page as discussed above.

! All DLLs in %files section should be listed separately as per Fedora MinGW packaging guidelines

! Fedora Packaging Guidelines prefer %global macro instead of %define. [2]

! description says:
MinGW Windows cppunit compression library.

It's not really a compression library, is it?


Also consider changing description from:
C++ unit testing framework
to:
MinGW Windows C++ unit testing framework
to better match other Fedora MinGW packages.

Oops, I meant summary line here, not description.

Thx for the review.
As I was busy, I plan to update on Monday, please ping if not done.

! According to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Changelogs
  packages must use one of the changelog formats defined in there.

1) Use your real name in the changelog;
2) fix the date of latest entry (it reads Jan 5 right now);
3) remove spaces around your email address.

It should read something like this:
* Mon Jan  5 2009 Nicolas Chauvet <kwizart> - 1.12.1-1


Besides the missing Requires: pkgconfig and the problem with changelog entries
the spec file looks good.

ping Nicolas Chauvet

Hi! I was just back from few days off this weekend...

I've updated the srpm/spec without bumping release because nothing was related to the binary package itself.

Adding a Requires line certainly counts as a change to the binary rpm. Anyway, the package looks good now.

APPROVED
