Comment 1 Michael S. 2012-07-23 21:49:04 UTC
Hi,

as I assume this is not gonna be backported to EPEL 5, I think you can and should clean :

- BuildRoot:      %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root-%(%{__id_u} -n)
( no longer needed )


%clean
rm -rf %{buildroot}

Done by default on Fedora, maybe needed for EPEL 6 ( not sure ).


%defattr(-,root,root,-)

( set by default, so can be removed )


rm -rf %{buildroot}   
( after %install, and also already done by default )


There is also no license bundled with the tarball, and policy requires to nag upstream about adding it :) . There is also no license in the ruby file, so that's problematic. Can you ask upstream to add both ( a copy of the license, and a comment in the ruby file with copyright, etc ) ?

Comment 2 Adam Miller 2012-07-24 23:07:27 UTC
I would like to add FAS account name tdawson to this review as I'll be out of town for the next week and don't want to be a blocker.

Fedora Account System Username: maxamillion tdawson

Comment 3 Troy Dawson 2012-07-30 15:27:24 UTC
I believe Adam was planning on having this be in EPEL 5 and 6.  But I don't see ruby-qpid-qmf in EPEL 5, so I'll have to talk with him about that when he get's back.

I have nagged upstream about the License and Copyright files.

Spec URL: http://maxamillion.fedorapeople.org/mcollective-qpid-plugin.spec
SRPM URL: http://maxamillion.fedorapeople.org/mcollective-qpid-plugin-0.1.1-2.fc17.src.rpm

I would like to target EPEL6 but I will likely not target EPEL5, I have removed the recommended "cruft" from the spec file ;) and snagged the re-released tarball from upstream that includes the LICENSE and COPYRIGHT files.

Comment 5 Michael S. 2012-08-01 21:07:27 UTC
Mhh, tarball got redone without changing the version number, that's evil ( and Fedora review complain, because src.rpm was not updated )

Anyway, you forgot one cleaning thing, and the rest is good.

I completely goofed, I was referencing the incorrect "branding" in the Source0 url so it was pointing to the wrong thing.

I also removed the rm -fr from %install

Comment 7 Michael S. 2012-08-02 20:10:41 UTC
Ok so now, md5 is correct, the rm is corrected, so let's say this is approved.

Comment 10 Peter Meier 2012-08-09 09:25:17 UTC
It would be great if EPEL5 could be targeted as well.

The main reason is that this would allow one to run mcollective over the same messaging system that pulp would use.

As pulp can be deployed on EL5 it is likely that organizations with EL5 and EL6 systems will deploy qpid as a messaging system in their environment to use all the features of pulp. However such organizations might also be interested to use mcollective and hence it would make sense to reuse the already deployed messaging bus for mcollective as well. Otherwise one would have to deploy a second messaging system within the infrastructure to use both (pulp and mcollective).

mcollective is able to use different messaging systems, however pulp can afaik only be used with qpid. So if one decide to use pulp qpid is set as a messaging bus. It would be a pity if the only reason for another messaging bus would be that there are no packages on EL5 for mcollective on qpid.

Besides one missing package (which can imho be fixed) I couldn't really read out other reasons why EL5 is not targeted. If there are other reasons could you please share them? Maybe they can be addressed as well - I might be able to contribute some time to fix these.

Thanks for reconsidering EL5 support.

Comment 11 Adam Miller 2012-08-09 13:29:21 UTC
Main reason being that this is part of the OpenShift-Origin[0] Fedora Feature efforts and there is a pretty respectable dependency list that just isn't available for RHEL5. I'm not necessarily opposed to working with you/someone to get this particular package functional on RHEL5 if it might be useful to others, but at first run I just didn't have any personal motivation to target RHEL5.

Comment 12 Peter Meier 2012-08-16 19:31:38 UTC
So I looked at the missing packages for EL5, which seems to be ruby-qpid-qmf  that comes from the qpid-qmf source package. This package is available as part of the RHEMRG set for RHEL5 while it seems to be part of os for EL6. So in general we could make ruby-qpid-qmf available for EL5 as it should be possible to get all the necessary dependencies onto EL5

I don't know what would be the correct way to get from here further to make ruby-qpid-qmf available on EL5 so it can be referenced by other packages, but I will contact you by mail as I don't think this discussion should belong to this ticket.

As soon as we have sorted that out, I will contribute anything that is still required to get that package packaged for EL5.

Comment 13 Adam Miller 2012-08-16 19:36:26 UTC
Sounds good, looking forward to it! :)

Comment 14 Troy Dawson 2012-09-25 16:40:53 UTC
Marking this CLOSED/ERRATA because it is now in the Fedora 18 Alpha release.

Comment 15 Steve Traylen 2012-09-26 09:54:19 UTC
Re RHEL5 then reguardless of the OS of message broker a RHEL5 package
would be needed if there is a single RHEL5 mcollective agent on your network.
