Description BJ Dierkes 2010-10-08 19:34:47 UTC
Spec URL: http://5dollarwhitebox.org/tmp/python26-mod_wsgi.spec
SRPM URL: http://5dollarwhitebox.org/tmp/python26-mod_wsgi-3.3-1.fc13.src.rpm

Description:

The mod_wsgi adapter is an Apache module that provides a WSGI compliant
interface for hosting Python based web applications within Apache. The
adapter is written completely in C code against the Apache C runtime and
for hosting WSGI applications within Apache has a lower overhead than using
existing WSGI adapters for mod_python or CGI.

This package is built against python26.


Note that the URL for Source0 seems to timeout occasionally resulting in a 404:

$ rpmlint -i SPECS/python26-mod_wsgi.spec 
0 packages and 1 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 0 warnings.

$ rpmlint -i /var/lib/mock/epel-5-x86_64/result/python26-mod_wsgi-3.3-1.el5.x86_64.rpm 
1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 0 warnings.

Comment 1 Joe Orton 2010-10-09 15:46:20 UTC
Thanks BJ! I would expect this needs to "Conflict: mod_wsgi" since the directives will clash and they can't be used together, no?

Comment 2 BJ Dierkes 2010-10-09 17:29:25 UTC
There is currently a thread on the EPEL devel mailing list regarding just that.  

https://www.redhat.com/archives/epel-devel-list/2010-October/msg00043.html


Personally, I think it should explicitly 'Conflict: mod_wsgi' and I previously had the explicit conflicts in both python26-mod_wsgi and python26-mod_python... however the EPEL policy regarding this isn't exactly clear so there is some discrepancy.  Some people lean toward the Fedora policy which is to never explicitly conflict because it is confusing to the user.  I'm hoping to clarify it in the EPEL Sig meeting (#fedora-meeting) on Monday at 19:30 UTC.  You're welcome to provide your feedback on list or in the meeting.

Thank Joe.

The value of this tag appears to be misspelled. Please double-check.

The value of this tag appears to be misspelled. Please double-check.

python26-mod_wsgi.src: W: invalid-url Source0: http://modwsgi.googlecode.com/files/mod_wsgi-3.3.tar.gz HTTP Error 404: Not Found
The value should be a valid, public HTTP, HTTPS, or FTP URL.

1 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 0 errors, 3 warnings.

The url is valid even if rpmlint says it isn't, confirmed manually

I like the approach of not putting it in Conflicts but using the conf file to ensure that both modules
are not loaded into apache simultaneously
