Description Toshio Ernie Kuratomi 2011-06-22 16:39:04 UTC 
Description of problem:

The Fedora Packaging Committee decided today on a consistent manner to name packages containing extensions to gnome shell.  The format is gnome-shell-extension-foo (no "s" in extension).

During the meeting, how gnome-shell-extensions fit into that was discussed.  We arrived at the following conclusions:

* The addon naming guidelines should supercede the subpackage naming guidelines in this case.

* Since we normally grandfather packages when we update the naming guidelines we wouldn't require that names of the currently existing gnome-shell-extensions be changed.

* However, especially since there's no re-review needed, it's highly desirable that the subpackages be renamed to that form (With %package -n gnome-shell-extension-alternate-tab for instance).  If you would like to do it so that end-users get consistent package names we'd appreciate the effort.

* Any additional subpackages that are built from this package in the future should use gnome-shell-extension-FOO rather than gnome-shell-extensions-FOO.

Thanks.

Patch for gnome-shell-extensions.spec

This patch updates the spec file to comply with the new packaging guidelines, while providing an upgrade path for existing installed packages.

Please comment if you find anything wrong with it, otherwise I'll commit it and work on updating g-s-e for F-16 and rawhide.

Comment 3 Toshio Ernie Kuratomi 2011-08-21 15:07:56 UTC 
Thanks, the change looks good to me.
Comment 4 Mohamed El Morabity 2011-08-21 15:23:53 UTC 
Thanks for your patch :).
Anyway, do you really think it's pertinent to rename also the common package? gnome-shell-extension(s)-common is not an extension, just files shared by all GS extensions.
Comment 5 Michel Lind 2011-08-21 18:12:56 UTC 
I'm not 100% sure on the -common subpackage; however, it seems a bit odd if that's the only gnome-shell-extensions-* package, and everything else is gnome-shell-extension-*
