The package is unusable. work ~/work/snowbox-2.0.1: ./snowbox no debug info in ELF executable errno -1 fatal error: no debug info in ELF executable A "bug" related to gcc itself. Spec URL: http://cicku.me/snowbox.spec SRPM URL: http://cicku.me/snowbox-2.0.1-2.fc20.src.rpm While building with gccgo makes sense from a Fedora point of view, the way you're doing it is suboptimal. The package gets built without optimization enabled, for example. Just replacing calls to the "go" tool with calls to gccgo is not something that generally works. It just happens to work in this case because the package has just one source file. The go build system has an option to enable compiling with gccgo (-compiler gccgo -gccgoflags '...') but this would require having the go binary available at build time. Also, gccgo accepts most of GCC's non-language-specific command line options. We should definitely work out how to handle this on the distribution level. (In reply to Lars Seipel from comment #3) > > Also, gccgo accepts most of GCC's non-language-specific command line > options.

We should come up with a) Golang Packaging Guidelines b) Maybe settle Fedora Golang SIG Btw I've got few Erlang-related packages written in Golang and I'd love to see Golang Package Guidelines first. Thank you all, I'm waiting for the result of FLOCK, this will be dicussed also. This is an automatic check from review-stats script. This review request ticket hasn't been updated for some time. We're sorry it is taking so long. If you're still interested in packaging this software into Fedora repositories, please respond to this comment clearing the NEEDINFO flag. You may want to update the specfile and the src.rpm to the latest version available and to propose a review swap on Fedora devel mailing list to increase chances to have your package reviewed. If this is your first package and you need a sponsor, you may want to post some informal reviews. Read more at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group. Without any reply, this request will shortly be considered abandoned and will be closed. Thank you for your patience. This is an automatic action taken by review-stats script. The ticket submitter failed to clear the NEEDINFO flag in a month. As per https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Policy_for_stalled_package_reviews we consider this ticket as DEADREVIEW and proceed to close it. |
