Comment 1 Paulo Andrade 2013-01-15 16:11:33 UTC
I will review this package.
Jerry, if you have another small/simple package, or for free :-) please consider #894610

Comment 2 Paulo Andrade 2013-01-16 02:04:27 UTC
Below I add a suggested patch to not provide the private .so and to use
standard permission flags in the .so.

Not sure how and if a %check could be added. Maybe somehow parse the
output of something like:
echo 'Test("tst/test.tst");' | gap -l "%{_gap_dir};%{buildroot}%{_gap_dir}"
but that should generate some funny output in build.log
BTW, after a lot of flashing and colors in my xterm the final output
of the above is:

$ echo 'Test("tst/test.tst");' | gap -l "/usr/lib/gap;/home/pcpa/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/gap-Browse-1.8.2-1.fc19.x86_64/usr/lib/gap"

Comment 3 Jerry James 2013-01-18 21:56:17 UTC
Thanks for the spec file patch.  I mostly used it, with a couple of tweaks.  I have experimented with various ways of doing testing for the last couple of days, and haven't really found anything satisfactory.  I put a note at the top of the spec file to remind myself to test it manually before each release.  New package:

Spec URL: http://jjames.fedorapeople.org/gap-Browse/gap-Browse.spec
SRPM URL: http://jjames.fedorapeople.org/gap-Browse/gap-Browse-1.8.2-2.fc19.src.rpm

Comment 4 Paulo Andrade 2013-01-19 12:56:49 UTC
I do not see any remaining issues.
I only suggest something like:

-# gap -l "%{_gapdir};%{buildroot}%{_gapdir}" <<< 'Test("tst/test.tst");'
+# gap -l "${_gapdir};${buildroot}${_gapdir}" <<< 'Test("tst/test.tst");'

or variant for the sake of silencing a bit rpmlint before
committing to git. But that is optional, as there are already
several spelling warnings that must be ignored.

I consider the package APPROVED.

Comment 5 Jerry James 2013-01-19 19:42:58 UTC
Thanks, Paulo.  I will make that change before committing to git.
