Bug 510736

Additionally, there is an rpmlint issue I could use some advice on:

rpmlint ../RPMS/x86_64/pycdio-0.13-1.fc10.x86_64.rpm 
pycdio.x86_64: E: non-executable-script /usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/cdio.py 0644
pycdio.x86_64: E: non-executable-script /usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/iso9660.py 0644
1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 2 errors, 0 warnings.

If I change the permissions to be executable, it complains about lacking a she-bang instead, but these are Python modules. Is it ok to ignore this?

0.15 was released a while ago.  Are there any issues that not the latest release is going to be included in Fedora?

(Sorry for a long-coming answer)

I gave 0.15 a shot and it seems to work just fine. Originally I was only interested in 0.13 because it required libcdio.so.7 which is what is available on a RHEL-5 based system. My initial goal was to get this package into EPEL which is why I was going with an older version, but since rebuilding 0.15 appears to work everywhere, I've updated the spec file and src rpm to 0.15 for your review.

Are you still looking for a sponsor.  If yes, then you should add a FE-NEEDSPONSOR as a blocker.  I'm not sure if RH employees have to follow the way as Fedora contributor [1].  My suggestion is that you should make some informal reviews of other packages to be come familiar with the Fedora Packaging Guidelines.

The rpmlint output:

[fab@laptop09 i586]$ rpmlint pycdio*
pycdio.i586: E: non-executable-script /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/iso9660.py 0644 /usr/bin/python
pycdio.i586: E: non-executable-script /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cdio.py 0644 /usr/bin/python
2 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 2 errors, 0 warnings.

At least cdio.py and iso9660.py says GPLv3+.

Red Hat employees have no special procedures with respect to sponsorship; they need to find a sponsor from the same group as everyone else.  Of course, they may simply be able to walk over and talk to a sponsor if they happen to be in the the right office, but that's no different than someone could do if they happened to be in the same general pyhsical location as, say, me.

Red Hat employees do sign a different CLA than most other contributors, but as far as I know that is the only real difference.

Thanks for the comments everyone. I've built another release with a patch that removes the she-bangs in the python modules (cdio.py and iso9660.py) and corrects the license field in the spec file. The patch was emailed (on libcdio-pycdio-devel) and accepted upstream this afternoon. I successfully built this SRPM in Koji and rpmlint does not have any errors or warnings.

rpmlint is quiet

spec file is clean legible and in English.

builds in mock

Thank you for the review, Dennis!
