Description Radek Novacek 2012-01-25 14:55:57 UTC
Spec URL: http://rnovacek.fedorapeople.org/kdevelop-custom-buildsystem.spec
SRPM URL: http://rnovacek.fedorapeople.org/kdevelop-custom-buildsystem-1.2.1-1.fc16.src.rpm
Description: 
This plugin allows to handle arbitrary custom buildsystems with KDevelop.

It supports setting up commands and arguments to build, configure, clean,
'dist-clean' and install the project, so that KDevelop's actions work as
expected.

Comment 1 Volker Fröhlich 2012-02-13 22:36:49 UTC
rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT is no longer necessary.

This package will only build on F17 and up, looking at the version requirements. You don't need to state a version for kdelibs-devel, since it is newer than 4.5 for any version of Fedora.

Can you make use of the tests?

Desktop files must be validated, please see:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#desktop-file-install_usage

And for the sake of beauty, there's an empty line at the very bottom. ;)

Comment 2 Kevin Kofler 2012-02-13 23:00:39 UTC
Given the path they're installed to, those .desktop files will only ever be read by kdelibs, so they need to be valid only for kdelibs.

Comment 3 Radek Novacek 2012-02-22 13:09:40 UTC
Spec URL: http://rnovacek.fedorapeople.org/kdevelop-custom-buildsystem.spec
SRPM URL: http://rnovacek.fedorapeople.org/kdevelop-custom-buildsystem-1.2.1-2.fc16.src.rpm

* Wed Feb 15 2012 Radek Novacek <rnovacek> 1.2.1-2
- Remove unnecessary buildroot clean
- Remove dep version on kdelibs
- Validate desktop files

Both desktop files are valid, so I added the checking even if it's not necessary.

The tests can't be ran during the build of the package, because they require X server to be running (they creates QApplication).

Comment 4 nucleo 2012-03-08 03:09:17 UTC
.desktop files have Type=Service, no Categories there but link to desktop-entry-spec in guidelines points to Type=Application,Link and Directory
http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html

So, running desktop-file-validate not required. It is needed for .desktop files installed in %{_datadir}/applications.

Comment 5 Gregor Tätzner 2012-04-07 11:22:41 UTC
The source url is not valid any more. Can you update it?

Comment 6 Radek Novacek 2012-04-13 11:27:19 UTC
Spec URL: http://rnovacek.fedorapeople.org/kdevelop-custom-buildsystem.spec
SRPM URL: http://rnovacek.fedorapeople.org/kdevelop-custom-buildsystem-1.2.1-3.fc17.src.rpm


* Fri Apr 13 2012 Radek Novacek <rnovacek> 1.2.1-3
- Update source url to match stable release
- Require stable version kdevelop 4.3.0

Scratch build: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3987507

Comment 7 Gregor Tätzner 2012-04-13 20:33:17 UTC
 - please use global instead of define at the top
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#.25global_preferred_over_.25define

and more important: How does this plugin work, actually? I can't see anything (besides cmake, make) in the project configuration. I'm on f16 kdevelop 4.3 kde 4.8.2

Comment 8 Gregor Tätzner 2012-07-21 08:09:54 UTC
@Radek Are you still interested in this package?

Comment 9 Radek Novacek 2012-07-23 06:57:12 UTC
Sorry, I forgot about this review completely. Yes, I'm interested, let's finish it.

Spec URL: http://rnovacek.fedorapeople.org/kdevelop-custom-buildsystem.spec
SRPM URL: http://rnovacek.fedorapeople.org/kdevelop-custom-buildsystem-1.2.1-4.fc17.src.rpm

How does this plugin work:

When you are opening directory as a project, you can choose "Custom BuildSystem" as a build system. Then in project configuration you can specify which command will be executed in which phase (build, configure, install, clean, prune) and manually specify includes/imports.
