Bug 697247

Various parts of this package are covered by various licenses, all of which are already OK for Fedora except the "Whatever" license:

     Whatever License

     THIS SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED 'AS-IS', WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED
     WARRANTY.  IN NO EVENT WILL THE AUTHORS BE HELD LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES
     ARISING FROM THE USE OF THIS SOFTWARE.

     Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim or modified
     copies of this license document.

     Permission is granted to anyone to use this software for any purpose,
     including commercial applications, and to alter it and redistribute it
     freely.

I have posted a request to the Fedora legal mailing list about it.

Tom Callaway posted to the Fedora legal mailing list that the "Whatever" license is acceptable as an extremely permissive variant of the MIT license, and should be marked as such.  I've updated the License tag in the spec accordingly:

A few comments:

1. You should add a runtime requirement for the hicolor-icon-theme package, which provides the /usr/share/icons/hicolor/* folders.

2. You should also probably add a runtime requirement on smartmontools for the smartctl binary.  I was able to install and run gsmartctl without smartctl installed.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Koji scratch build for F15:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3413520

- Updated to latest upstream release.
- Removed obsolte BuildRoot tag, clean section, defattr, etc.
- Added runtime requirements for smartmontools and hicolor-icon-theme

Eric, here's the formal review of your package. There are only a few things that need to be addressed (some are optional):

- please add parentheses around "GPLv2 or GPLv3" in the License field
  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:LicensingGuidelines#Combined_Dual_and_Multiple_Licensing_Scenario

- add the scriptlets required to update the icon cache:
  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:ScriptletSnippets#Icon_Cache

- You can drop --prefix=%{_prefix} from %configure. It's already part of the 
  %configure macro.

- Add a second percent sign to #%PAM-1.0 to prevent a potential macro 
  expansion in the heredoc and to make rpmlint happy.

- The image files in %{_datadir}/%{name}/ are added twice in %files. Either 
  prefix %{_datadir}/%{name} with "%dir" or drop the two lines 
  %{_datadir}/%{name}/icon_cddvd.png and %{_datadir}/%{name}/icon_hdd.png.

- Maybe you want to replace the icon/hicolor lines by a single one:
  %{_datadir}/icons/hicolor/*x*/apps/%{name}.png

- I suggest to move all the docs to %{_defaultdocdir}/%{name}-%{version}/ 
  instead of providing two doc dirs (versioned and unversioned).

Ugh!  gsmartcontrol builds fine for F16 but won't build for rawhide due to changes to the Glib thread API in 2.31.  Aside from deprecation warnings, I get some compile errors that I don't know how to deal with.  I've asked the author if he has any advice.

gsmartcontrol-0.8.6-3.fc16 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 16.
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/gsmartcontrol-0.8.6-3.fc16

Applied simple patch from upstream that fixes build with Glib 2.31.  Only a few lines of code changed.
