Bug 624023

New SPEC: http://git.kolabsys.com/rpm/reprepro/plain/reprepro.spec?h=f13/custom-kolabsys.com&id=7d314c2fe42a25231adee31b34ed24fa5df0ae96
New SRPM: http://mirror.kolabsys.com/pub/fedora/apt-utils/f13/SRPMS/reprepro-4.2.0-3.fc12.src.rpm

Spec and srpm don't match, spec is at -4 while package is still -3. As there is no -4 package in the repo I have taken -3 with the spec of -4.

TODO items:
- Fix the items marked with FIX

- Use the full length of 80 characters for the description

- Requires db4 and gpgme are not needed, I doubt bzip2 is. Libraries should not have explicit requires.

- Add AUTHORS, COPYING, ChangeLog, README, NEWS, TODO, docs/FAQ, docs/manual.html, docs/short-howto, to %doc

- You also want might want to include the examples from the docs folder, but make sure to remove the executable bits.

- Do not specify the manpage with extension gz, we might very well switch to another compression method.

- Timestamp of the source tarball does not match (at least in -3 srpm), please download it again, see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Timestamps

- Changelog doesn't follow any of the allowed formats, see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Changelogs

*** Bug 720181 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Since this post seems not very active(2010!) 
I propose my own SPEC and SRPM URL (if this is permitted)
http://repo.virer.net/centos/6/SPECS/reprepro.spec
http://repo.virer.net/centos/6/SRPMS/reprepro-4.10.0-1.el6.src.rpm

Your spec does not address all the issues I found in the review.
- manpages still have the extension hardcoded

You even introduced some new problems:
- %{_usr}/bin should be %{_bindir}
- bzip2-libs is not a -devel package
- Various unneeded explicit Requires
- Source1 not needed, it's the same as COPYING form the tarball
- not all docs are included, e.g. the examples are missing

If you want to take over packaging and maintenance of this package, please submit a new review request and mark this one a duplicate of it. Thanks in advance!
