Description:
Docker is a docking application (WindowMaker dock app) which acts as a system
tray for KDE and GNOME2. It can be used to replace the panel in either
environment, allowing you to have a system tray without running the KDE/GNOME
panel or environment.

Comment 1 Matthew Miller 2013-09-09 18:21:22 UTC
Note as per https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/341#comment:7, it is okay to omit  "Provides: docker" (and this spec file does). Obsoletes is also properly provided, with a conditional for < f22. (That can, of course, be dropped in the future, but the conditional seems like a good idea too.)

Comment 2 Matthew Miller 2013-09-09 18:31:08 UTC
A few small things on review:

- the license should actually be "GPLv2+", not "GPL".
- you can drop the %defattr if you like
- same with Buildroot
- and with %clean section


And a bigger question: do we want to rename the binary to wmdocker?

Comment 3 Andreas Bierfert 2013-09-10 20:36:34 UTC
Thanks for taking up the review.

I will change the stuff you pointed out asap.

I thought about the rename myself but came to the conclusion that if we provide a clean upgrade path users will probably have a smooth transition package wise but will be missing their docker dockapp... if they pinpoint it to the rename it is not a problem however. Will the new docker package provide a docker binary?

Comment 4 Matthew Miller 2013-09-10 20:42:24 UTC
Yes, it has a docker binary, and that's much harder to change than the package name, since a lot of external documentation will talk about it (and the upstream is very concerned about a pleasant/seamless/same-everywhere user experience).

Comment 5 Andreas Bierfert 2013-09-10 20:56:26 UTC
Ok, before we add a conflicts I will rename the binary as well.

Comment 7 Matthew Miller 2013-09-21 19:15:08 UTC
whoops sorry for dropping this on the floor for a bit there.  Review passed.
