Bug 725228

I am not 100% sure if the current state with those subpackages is really appropriate especially because all resulting rpms do have a different name starting with lib%{name}-{devel,designer} and the debug package is called qcodeedit-debug. Not really a great solution I think.

Don't know what's more appropriate. Would be glad if someone with more experience could help me on this issue.

Just a couple of quick comments:

- adapt Source0 according to 
  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:SourceURL#Sourceforge.net

- Drop BR: gcc-c++. It's present by default
  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Exceptions_2

- There's no need to prefix the packages with "lib". Just put the library into
  the base package and the devel files into %{name}-devel

- Is it necessary to call qmake-qt4 %{name}.pro twice in %build?

- Install the shared library files libqcodeedit.so* directly into %{_libdir}

- The designer subpackage should require qt-devel for proper directory
  ownership. Maybe it would also make sense to move the plugin to the devel
  package instead of package it separately.

- The devel package should also require qt-devel which provides directory 
  %{_libdir}/qt4/mkspecs/features/

- The devel package must require the base package this way
  Requires: %{name}%{?_isa} = %{version}-%{release}
  The %{?_isa} part has been added to the guidelines lately:
  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Requiring_Base_Package

- You can drop Requires: pkgconfig. It's added automatically if necessary
  (still required for EPEL < 6, though).

- Add GPL.txt to the base package.

- The tarball contains a Doxyfile. Maybe it's a good idea to build the doxygen
  (html) documentation and add it to the devel package (or a separate doc
  package).

Alright thanks for the suggestions. I fixed all issues you found except I didn't remove the -designer subpackage, since I don't think the -devel package is more appropriate.

I had a deeper look at the package and it looks almost fine. There are yet a few small things to be fixed:

- The URL given in Source0 is invalid. Change it to
  http://downloads.sourceforge.net/edyuk/%{name}-%{version}.tar.gz

- Fix the file permissions that rpmlint complains about (see below)
  * add chmod 644 README.txt to %prep
  * add chmod 755 %{buildroot}%{_libdir} to %install

- Add qt-devel to the devel package (see comment #2).

- Drop Requires: pkgconfig as there's no .pc file in -devel.

- Replace $RPM_BUILD_ROOT with %{buildroot} to use macros consistently.

- If you don't plan to build the package for EPEL < 6 too, you can drop 
  rm -rf %{buildroot} from install. Otherwise, add a BuildRoot field and a
  %clean section. These are still required for EPEL 4 and 5.
  
- You can drop option -p from "cp" as option -a already includes -p 
  implicitly.

- rpmlint doesn't like non-devel packages requiring a devel package. If the
  designer subpackage is considered a devel package as well, this is probably 
  OK.

Thanks for your pretty fast and comprehensive review. I think I fixed all issues now and removed the -designer subpackage as well.

The designer plugin ought to go in the main pkg, not -devel, as it can be loaded at runtime.

Fixed. Should be fine now, or?

SRPM-URL: http://hannes.fedorapeople.org/qcodeedit-2.2.3-4.fc15.src.rpm

I just checked the dependencies again, and noticed that you can drop Require: qt-devel from the base package. Package qt-x11 provides the plugin directory and libQtDesigner.so.4. Since the base package depends on libQtDesigner.so.4, there's no need for qt-devel here.

I also forgot to add the filenames in comment #4. The chmod statement in %install should look like this:
chmod 755 %{buildroot}%{_libdir}/lib%{name}.so.*

Alright fixed this!

Not quite, sorry. You should drop Requires: qt-devel from the base package but keep it for -devel.

And (with my qt maintainer hat on), deps of the form:
Requires: qt4-devel
or
Requires: pkgconfig(QtGui)

are preferable to
Requires: qt-devel

Ok, like this? Quite confusing ;-)

Yes. The package looks good now. :)

----------------
Package APPROVED
----------------

I still see 1 small problem

$RPM_OPT_FLAGS aren't being used when building libqcodeedit due to it building
in debug mode by default.

I'd suggest removing the line
CONFIG += debug
from at least lib/lib.pro and perhaps from qcodeedit.pro too (the latter seems
to set _DEBUG_BUILD_ or _RELEASE_BUILD_ defines, but neither of these seem to
be used in code anywhere that I can tell).

Ok removed these two lines? Is it ok like this?

SRPM-URL: http://hannes.fedorapeople.org/qcodeedit-2.2.3-7.fc15.src.rpm

Yes, now the %optflags are present. Sorry for having overlooked this one.
